GOING ELECTRIC

At each one of our showrooms, we have a dedicated expert ready to help you make the right decision when buying an electric car. There are things to consider when moving from a petrol or diesel car to electric. Our expert team will provide you with all the information you need. But we want you to get a head start on your research, so we’ve provided the main option below…

Battery Electric Vehicle (BEV)

Motor Type - electric only

Electric Supply - Battery is charged by plugging into the electric grid

Charging point requirements - Yes

Emissions - Zero CO2 emissions

Road Tax - Low to Zero

Plug-in Hybrid (PHEV)

Motor Type - petrol or Diesel engine and electric motor

Electric Supply - Battery is charged by plugging into the electric grid

Charging point requirements - Yes

Emissions - 35-55g/km approximately

Road Tax - Low

Hybrid (HEV)

Motor Type - petrol or Diesel engine and electric motor

Electric Supply - Battery is charged by regenerating the power from the engine

Charging point requirements - No

Emissions - 40-100g/km approximately

Road Tax - Lower than the equivalent model with a petrol or diesel engine

1- Zero CO2 Emissions

Be kinder to the environment by reducing the direct and lifecycle emissions from vehicle production

4 - Low To Zero Road Tax
Reduce your motoring expenses by going electric. Due to reduced emissions, you don’t get taxed as much if anything when driving a 100% electric car.

6 Benefits Of Owning A BEV
(Battery Electric Vehicle)

2 - No Petrol or Diesel Costs
The cost of traditional fuels has risen over the years. Going electric will reduce this motoring overhead.

5 - Government Grants & Incentives
The Government need to meet emission targets. To meet these expected targets the Government provide financial incentives to convert drivers from a combustion engine to electric.

3 - Smoother Quieter Driving Experience

You wouldn’t think it but it makes a difference. Electric cars have less moving parts reducing engine noise on every journey.

6 - No More Range Anxiety
EV cars have been developed with this in mind. New EV cars now offer ranges of over 250-miles when fully charged. This will assist in reducing the ‘what if I run out of charge’ question.

Slow Charging

This is a traditional household 3-pin socket and plug that you can use. You are able to plug your car in overnight to fully charge. Slow charging is rated at 3-6kW.

Fast Charging

Fully charge a cars 30kW battery in 2-5 hours. Fast chargers are rated at 7kW or 22kW depending on their type.

Rapid Charging

These rapid charging stations help you go further on longer journeys. Charging up to 50kW will have an electric car at 80% battery capacity within 40-minutes.

4 Benefits Of Owning A PHEV
(Plug-In Hybrid Vehicle)

1 - Miles Per Gallon

When owning or researching a Hybrid Plug-In car you will notice the very impressive mpg figure. These vehicles can achieve a great distance when on the road between filling up your tank.

2 - Zero Emissions

The PHEV operates with an electric motor that combined with a combustion engine power plant. So when the vehicle is operating on the 100% electric motor the car won’t produce any emissions. Giving you the benefit of driving in restricted zones in Citys like London.

3 - Cheap To Run

Most Plug-In Hybrid cars offer an electric motor that can produce around 35-miles+ on just the electric motor. This means if you are doing a short commute or doing jobs round down, you won’t be spending anything at the fuel station until you need to go further.

4 - Low Road Tax

Reduce your motoring expenses by buying a PHEV. Due to reduced emissions, you don’t get taxed as much if anything when buying a Plug-In Hybrid car.

1 - Miles Per Gallon
When owning or researching a Hybrid car you will see the good miler per gallon figures stated by the manufactures. You’ll see that this vehicle type offers better mpg than a diesel or petrol engine.

3 Benefits Of Owning A HEV
(Hybrid Vehicle)

2 - Zero Emissions

The HEV operates with an electric motor that combined with a combustion engine power plant. The electric engine is charged by the engine braking of the petrol or diesel engine. This gives you an electric motor that can power your car 100% on electric. Offering you zero emissions when driving in 100% electric mode.

3 - Don’t Plug It In
The electric motor isn’t charged by plugging into the power grid. Your electric engine in an HEV is charged by the movement of the combustion engine. When you let off your accelerator, your engine begins to slow you down instead of breaking. This is when your battery gets charged. So you don’t have to remember to make sure you plug your car in to top up the battery.
