Charging and electric car

Charging & Range

Perhaps the most important thing you need to know about EV ownership.

EV charging involves supplying electric vehicles with power through home chargers or public charging stations. Charging at home is convenient and can be easily integrated into your daily routine. Various charging options are available, including standard, fast, and ultra-fast chargers, each offering different charging speeds to suit your needs.

Many modern EVs are equipped with features like smart charging, allowing you to schedule charging times and maximize efficiency. As charging infrastructure continues to grow, finding a charging station on the road is becoming increasingly easy. With advancements in battery technology, EVs now offer impressive ranges, making them suitable for both short commutes and long journeys.

How far can I go?

Probably a lot further than you might think! Electric vehicles offer impressive ranges, allowing you to travel significant distances on a single charge. Many modern EVs can cover 250 to 350 miles, making them perfect for both daily commutes and longer road trips.

The average distance which is driven in the UK is 22 miles per day. 90% of car journeys are less than 15 miles, so electric cars could well be very suitable for you.

With advancements in battery technology, some models can even exceed 400 miles! Plus, charging infrastructure is rapidly expanding, meaning you’ll find more charging stations along popular routes. Many EVs also feature energy-efficient driving modes and regenerative braking, which help maximize your range. Overall, you can confidently explore without worrying about running out of power!

From time to time, you may need to travel long distance which means you may need to charge on the move. Use our handy tool to find your nearest charger.

There are now more public charge points in the UK than there are petrol stations, which should give you some confidence regarding making those longer trips. Public charge points are provided by different companies, many of whom have set up their own networks. Sometimes, the electricity is provided for free, sometimes not, but generally speaking the cost is still low.

ZAP Map is a live online map or downloadable app will allows you to locate and navigate to nearest charge points including information on the speed, connector types and location.
