If you're considering a hybrid vehicle, we want you to feel comfortable to speak to us about anything you're unsure of. Our Electric Specialists will take you through the journey, step-by-step, explain the process and answer any questions you may have.

"I used to have a petrol car but was spending near on £200 a month on fuel with the journeys I was making. It was surprising how much petrol I used by just going to and from work and out and about at the weekends.

When it came to changing my car, it was a no-brainer to switch to electric. I've had my electric car for over 18 months now and on average, I spend £60 a month charging my car, making the same journeys. Initially I was worried about charging it and had a lot of range anxiety but I needn't have worried. More often than not, I'll charge my car at my local rapid charging station and take my little boy and dog to the park whilst it's charging. When I don't rapid charge it, I have a three-pin charging lead for home.

In 2023 we took the car to Guernsey and had no issues charging on the journey down or whilst on Guernsey itself. It does take a little bit of planning ahead but I can't imagine going back to a petrol car now."

"My initial interest into owning an electric car came from exploring avenues into reducing energy costs for the home. Despite having had solar panels fitted, I found that energy companies were reluctant to offer competitive tariffs at that time, except for an EV tariff.

The next personal objection I needed to overcome was range and the UK’s charging infrastructure. There was so much bad press around both of these but I soon found out that this was old news. In fact the amount of super charging stations, the progress in the newer vehicles charging speeds and the in-car apps to locate charging stations en route, meant a quick 15-minute charge and you could get on your way.

Between two cars we cover close to 20,000 miles a year, when at 45mpg we would use 2,000 litres of fuel a year at £1.50 per litre. This meant our yearly fuel bill was roughly £3,000 along with road tax, it was getting close to £3,400. The EVs we were looking at would achieve 3.5 m/kW so we would roughly use 5,714 kWs of energy at 7.5p/kW, which equates to £428 per year in electric to run both cars - significantly cheaper that the cost of petrol. With reduced service intervals and limited wear to brakes, it meant I’d also be saving on maintenance costs!"
