Electric cars are quickly becoming more common on UK roads, with thousands switching their old petrol and diesel vehicles for EVs. December saw battery electric vehicles (BEVs) claim their largest-ever monthly market share, of an impressive 32.9 percent.
For 2022 as a whole, they comprised 16.6 percent of registrations, surpassing diesel for the first time to become the second most popular powertrain after petrol.
However, with the growth of eclectic cars, drivers are being warned to brush up on their knowledge of their vehicle and how to optimise them.
One key charging tip is to ensure they are keeping an eye on their re-charging speed at public charging units.
Rapid and ultra-rapid public chargers are designed to operate most efficiently when a vehicle's state of charge is between 10 to 20 percent and 80 percent.
