Insights from Marc Palmer of Auto Trader UK and Vicky Read of ChargeUK shed light on the evolving market and infrastructure, stressing the importance of bridging the gap between reality and perception regarding range anxiety. Throughout the event, there was a strong focus on educating potential buyers and improving as well as standardising payment and charger technology reliability to build confidence among EV users.
