Surprise us! Tell us something people wouldn’t readily know about this electric car

Just a higher-up Corsa, not a family car at all. Really poor instep to get into the car, a struggle for anyone except the very able bodied.

 

What electric car are you interested in next and why?

MINI – more room for driver and easier to get in than the Mokka-e.

 

What home charging unit do you use? Would you recommend it to others and why?

Hypervolt – recommend by fitter, reliable and no issues.

What home electricity supplier & tariff do you use? Would you recommend it to others and why?

OVO Energy – not recommended as keep on changing my direct debit payments even though I’m well in credit. I reported a fault with smart meter, still no contact after a couple of months. They do have an excellent app which shows you your usage on each day. Stuck with them as others won’t accept new customers due to the state of the world economy.
