Cars are one of the most popular ways to get around in the UK. They are quick and for the most part reliable. This is why there are more than 38 million licensed vehicles on the British roads last year but with rising fuel prices, concern about the environment and a ban on new fuel-only cars in 2030, is there a better solution for getting around?
Fortunately, there is thanks to electric vehicles (EVs) which are growing increasingly popular across the globe. There truly is no better time to purchase an EV in the UK too with plans to add 145,000 more charging points and government grants to subsidise the cost too.
Now that you’ve decided to make the switch to electric, you’ll now have to choose which EV is the perfect one for you. Here are some of the most popular electric vehicles in the UK.
Tesla Model 3
Not only is this car popular in the UK but the world too. With a sleek design and an even smoother drive, this car is a great option for a first electric vehicle. Plus, you’ll enjoy bold features such as self-drive and a state of the art touchscreen with built-in navigation.
For those that like fast cars too, this beauty can reach 0 to 60 mph in just 3.1 seconds meaning you can dominate each road you go on.
Kia e-Niro
For those with a family, you’ll want the Kia e-Niro. This spacious car is not only affordable but is also capable of up to 282 miles fully charged, so family road trips won’t come to a grinding halt each time you need to charge up.
What’s more, this car was built with safety in mind, with its easy to handle driving ability as well as countless safety features for your peace of mind.
Volkswagen ID
Affordable, safe and smooth, this EV from VW is of similar stature to the latest Golf models and is futuristically designed to offer plenty of storage in both the boot and the car itself. This car is perfect for commuters with its largest battery offering ranges of up to 340 miles fully charged. Plus, getting it from 5% to 80% charged will only take 35 minutes with a rapid 100kW charging point.
Once purchased, you can feel eco-friendly each time to drive. Just remember to get the right car insurance to protect yourself and your new car from any accidents on the roads.
