Watch Episode 1 - Simplifying the Switch to an Electric Vehicle
In the first episode, we explore what life is like living with an electric car and how it can be much easier than many people realise to make the switch. Robert Llewellyn is joined by Maddie Moate to share their experiences of driving electric as both a long time EV driver and someone who has been driving an electric car for just over a year.Watch Episode 2 - EV Charging
We know that charging is a key topic for most people thinking about getting an electric car.
So, in the second episode of our Electric Moments series, Robert and Maddie explore what’s involved. They look at home, public and on-street charging, as well as talking with a long-term driver of electric cars to get their take on what charging is really like.
Watch Episode 3 - Driving efficiently
An electric car’s ‘range’ – or the distance you can travel on a fully charged battery – is an important topic for many people. Driving efficiently can improve this range, just as it can boost the mpg on a petrol or diesel car.
In the third episode of our Electric Moments series, Robert and Maddie look at what affects your electric car’s range, how you can improve it by changing the way you drive and where you can find the ‘real world’ ranges of many electric vehicles.
Watch Episode 4 - The real costs of owning an EV
If there’s one thing that many people think they know about electric cars, it’s that “it’s too expensive to get one”. But this isn’t really true. Yes, the upfront price tends to be more, but there are many ways they can cut your costs as well.
In the fourth episode of our Electric Moments series, Robert Llewellyn and Matthew Walters look at the ‘total cost of ownership’ – everything you pay from the moment you choose your electric car until the time you’ve finished with it. When you add it all together, you could find an electric car is actually the cheaper option, particularly if you are leasing it.
Watch Episode 5 - Keeping up with the Greens
In our fifth episode, we’re discussing how getting an electric vehicle can be the start of something bigger for people who want to reduce environmental impact – and a way to champion greener living. We also speak with EV drivers about why they switched and what other green changes they have made since then.
Robert Llewellyn and Maddie Moate explore how electricity can be generated, used and stored, as well as hearing from real world EV drivers about the other green technologies they have adopted since they made the switch.
Watch Episode 6 - The road to 2030
In our sixth episode, we’re looking a little further down the road to the 2030 ban on the sale of new petrol and diesel cars and vans. We explore what it involves and explain how it could pay to consider your options sooner rather than later. We hope you find it interesting.
Watch Episode 7 - Why it might be time to switch to an electric van
In our seventh episode, we’re turning our attention from cars to commercial vehicles. With the sharp rise in home deliveries since the pandemic started, there’s a lot of demand for electric vans – and many more models for companies to choose from. We explore the options and look at the latest developments in range, charging and affordability. We hope you find it interesting.
Watch Episode 8 - The benefits of going electric
In our final episode, we’re talking about tax. From benefit in kind to salary sacrifice, we look at how the current tax rules incentivise companies and drivers to use electric vehicles. We also hear from a fleet manager who explains why electric vehicles make so much sense for fleets that it should be an easy decision to switch.
