Rate your EV out of 5.

 

What car are you interested in next and why?
Kia EV6 GT – phenomenal car, out guns most supercars; amazing engine & battery tech, would be my first choice for a non-SUV EV.

 

What home charging unit do you use? Would you recommend it to others and why?
I would say Pod Point but I’ve had issues as they didn’t fit the full order ergo missed the lock – taken them 2 months to sort – other than that it’s been fine, just don’t expect fast customer service!

What home electricity supplier & tariff do you use? Would you recommend it to others and why?
Still looking so don’t really have an answer but should go with someone like Octopus that has a low off-peak per kWh.

 

Rate your electricity supplier out of 5.

 

What public charging networks would you recommend to others and why?
Gridserve is amazing. I would say public charging networks are the worst thing about owning an EV as they’re often broken and not maintained properly or they’re in use. We need more reliable providers.

 

List your top 3 favourite public charging networks (in order of preference).

  • Girdserve
  • IONITY
  • Rest are rubbish!

 

Who do you insure your EV with? Would you recommend them to others and why?
LV – best price and cover.

 

Rate your insurance provider out of 5.

 

Estimate how much money you save per month owning and running an EV compared to a petrol/diesel car.
