Interest in EVs increased in the UK amid ‘fuel shortage’
With fuel shortages, increasing maintenance costs and co2 emissions, Electric Vehicles are becoming even more popular across the country.
Increase in interest for Electric Cars since the long queues started
There has been a reported increase in demand for Electric Vehicles with the recent challenges with running fuel-powered vehicles.
EVs are not just zero-emission and cost-effective, they also have an increasingly long drive range when they are well and fully charged. While fuel cars are leading to gridlock and traffic jams at filling stations as drivers panic buy fuel, it’s also having another, more unexpected outcome: it’s driving interest in electric cars and public transport.
Figures show that according to figures gathered by the UK newspaper, the Evening Standard, website searches for ‘electric cars in the UK have gone up over 1.5k% the past week. As the fuel shortage take a turn for the worse and many fuel stations closed, more people in the UK turned to the internet, in what seems like an effort to learn more about cars that don’t rely on petroleum combustible fuel.
Here we have listed the top 3 advantages of an Electric Vehicle:
- Zero-Emissions – 100% Electric Cars have emission and are therefore good for the environment and keeping co2 from the atmosphere.
- Relatively low maintenance cost – Compared to combustible fuel-powered vehicles with a lot of moving engine parts and the resulting wearing out of the engine, EVs have way fewer moving parts and costs relatively less to maintain (depending on the make and model).
- Drive range – Over the years, the driving range on a full EV battery charge has increased and most new EVs today go for above 200 miles on one charge.
