Electric is for everyone

17 September 2026

Electric is for everyone, but which car is right for you comes down to what your daily commute and lifestyle looks like. If your daily mileage is not excessive, and you have access to a charging point at home or work, a fully electric car could be ideal. If you do mainly long journeys then a Plug-in Hybrid might be better. Either way, here’s three reasons why an EV might be your perfect next car.

Electric is cost-effective.
The cost to power a vehicle with electricity is considerably cheaper than petrol or diesel.*

Electric is convenient.
The UK’s EV charging network is growing rapidly which means finding a place to plug your car in is easier than ever before.

Electric is sustainable.
Choosing an electric car means you will be reducing your CO2 emissions and contributing to cleaner air quality for everyone

Running costs are low

With the technology behind electric vehicles improving at such a pace, the cost of EV ownership has never been more affordable than it is today. With all sales of new petrol and diesel cars being banned from 2030, the future of driving is most certainly electric. You could find yourself pleasantly surprised by the financial savings afforded to you by much cheaper electric car running costs.
