According to government data from June this year, there are approximately 2.3 million electric vehicles in Britain, equalling to around 7% of overall road vehicles. Typically the majority of these are hybrid models, however all electric cars are catching up and continue to be registered at a quicker rate than diesel or petrol vehicles. With many benefits being offered on new electrical vehicles, if you're interested in making the jump to electric when is a better time to do it than now!

The government has not hit its target of having six or more rapid or ultra-rapid electric vehicle chargers at every motorway service area in England by the end of 2023. Research conducted by the RAC found that 46 of 119 motorway services reviewed on Zapmap have the target number of chargers above 50kW to serve the UK’s growing fleet of battery-electric vehicles.

The popularity of electric vehicles has been a long time coming. While electric vehicles may just be giving petrol-driven cars a run for their money now, the technology has been around for centuries.

Mr Hammond drives high-end performance cars. The greater mass of people need a simple cheap way to be mobile. If BYD et al is allowed to market its cheaper-than-petrol EV cars, the masses including myself will go EV. We are seeing this now in Manila when kids to adults are using e-trikes (lead acid or Li-Ion battery) for transporting people & light goods with price competitive or lower than gas-powered motorcycles

What's your own take on this? Richard Hammond has predicted that the majority of cars will be petrol by 2050, despite plans to massively expand electric vehicle sales in the coming years. The former Top Gear host is one of the most well-known automotive experts and has frequently given his opinion on the future of vehicles. #EnergyTransition #Innovation #urbanmobility #futuremobility #electricvehicles #automotive https://lnkd.in/gcS-Kk56

I was reading the article on "The Driven" that highlights a key aspect in the discussion about the safety of electric vehicles (EVs) compared to gasoline and diesel cars. The revelation that EVs are less prone to fires than traditional cars is a significant turn. Personally, I believe this information not only emphasizes the environmental benefits of EVs but also their superiority in terms of safety. This data could be a strong incentive to accelerate the transition to more sustainable mobility, debunking myths and concerns about EV safety. It's encouraging to see how technological innovation in EVs is constantly improving safety, making them an increasingly attractive option for consumers. https://lnkd.in/da7JKvRA

Looking to learn something new? Electric vehicles (EVs) are not a new concept! They made their debut in the late 1800s and faced fierce competition from gasoline-powered cars. During the turn of the 20th century, it was unclear if electric, steam or gasoline-powered automobiles would seize the market. But fast forward to today, it is obvious that gasoline won due to the prices of crude oil and early cars in the 1930s as well as the lightness of the combustion engine when compared with EVs at the time.

Charging concerns, the high cost of ownership and the complexity of long-distance trips are the three leading reasons why more than 40 per cent of U.S. electric vehicle owners say they will likely switch back to combustion engine vehicles with their next purchase, according to the results of a new consumer survey from McKinsey & Company. The findings suggest further complications lie ahead on the path toward an electrified future already encountering slowing sales growth — and they fly in the face of conventional industry thinking that consumers will stick with EVs once they make the propulsion leap. The report notes that several automakers, including Tesla, Mercedes-Benz AG, General Motors, and Ford Motor Company have made cuts to their near-term goals for EVs since the start of 2023. Even the Biden administration seems to be backtracking on previously proposed policy. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration NHTSA recently released new vehicle fuel economy standards that are less stringent than the Biden administration originally proposed. The final Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) requirements increase fuel economy for passenger cars and light trucks from 39.1 to 50.4 miles per gallon by 2031. #electricalvehicles #evs #chargingconcerns #highownershipcosts #longdistancetripscomplexity #evloyalty #automotive #automotiveindustry #ice
Will price, charging headaches send EV owners back to the ICE age?

As the automotive world shifts toward electric vehicles (EVs), one question keeps coming up: Are EVs more expensive or actually cheaper in the long run? The answer? It depends on where you live and what you buy. While EVs often come with a higher sticker price, their cost of ownership over five years is lower in most states. But despite these savings, many customers hesitate due to upfront costs and a lack of information on long-term benefits. #EV #Sustainability #AutomotiveIndustry #FutureOfMobility https://lnkd.in/eyehtMk9
