What is the make, model and year of your EV?
Kia e-Niro 2020
What got you into an EV in the first place?
We had had two Toyota Prius which we liked but we had PV panels and Christine’s hearing was getting quite bad so it seemed a logical step.
What didn’t you know to begin with?
Pretty well everything but we did a lot of research and talked to a friend who had had a Nissan LEAF for some time.

What did you find most confusing about EVs and how did you solve that?
The multiple charging systems which was solved with experience.
What sources of information helped you e.g. people, groups, websites etc?
YouTube is a great source with contributors like FullyCharged, Car wow etc.
Why did you buy the car you did?
We needed space and comfort so it boiled down to two – the Kona and the Niro. We found the Kona to be noisy with less rear seat room.
