The Benefits of Electric Vehicles (EVs)
After 2035 it will not be possible to purchase a brand new petrol or diesel vehicle. Why? Because these vehicles are a significant contributor to climate change. The protection of our planet, making big changes and ultimately halting climate change is at the forefront of everyone’s minds. The recent COP26 summit, where world leaders came together to make their pledges, shows the importance of making these changes in order to save our planet.
There are many benefits to an electric vehicle:
Running Cost
The cost of petrol and diesel has increased significantly over the years. Running a car is certainly not cheap, especially if you cover many miles every month. This is one of the reasons that people are considering the move to an electric vehicle, as they are much more economical to run. The savings made on fuel are huge. When a car charging point is used, a car will be charged efficiently, using minimal amounts of electricity.
Zero Emissions
Reducing our carbon footprint is an important way that individuals can contribute to the protection of our planet. Thinking about the future of our children and our children's children, it is our duty to make changes now. By moving towards electric vehicles there will be less harmful gases damaging the environment. What’s more, an electric car has zero emissions and therefore you don’t pay road tax saving even more money on the annual cost of running your car.
Improved Air Quality
The increase in asthma and respiratory problems in children is distressing. Air pollution tests have found that some schools in built up areas have a dangerous level of toxins in the air. Electric vehicles and their zero emissions, will help to improve air quality and improve respiratory health.
Convenience
Imagine not having to queue up and fill your car with petrol. Plug your car in before bed and wake up to a fully charged vehicle. Should you need to charge on the go, there are charge points across the country at places including car parks, supermarkets and hotels. The cost to install a car charging point is not as expensive as you may think.
