Public charging review: Kia EV6, Patrick McGrath
Patrick McGrath runs a Kia EV6 GT Line S AWD electric car and shares his experiences to-date on public charging. What do you think of the UK public charging network in general? Poor. Compared to Europe, there are a lot of parts of the UK which don’t have fast chargers and it can be […]
Public charging review: MG5 EV 2022, Geo68
Geo68 runs a MG5 EV 2022 electric car and shares their experiences to-date on public charging. What do you think of the UK public charging network in general? It works for me as I can’t have a home charger as I live in a flat with no private parking. With this in mind, I […]
Public charging review: Renault Zoe 2020, Purple Zoe
Purple Zoe runs a Renault Zoe Play 2020 electric car and shares their experiences to-date on public charging. What do you think of the UK public charging network in general? Rubbish basically. Getting better with contactless but still too many apps. Pumps on the motorways have been ‘upgraded’ for faster charging and contactless payment, […]
Public charging review: BMW i3 REx 2017, Peterboat
Peterboat runs a BMW i3 REx 2017 electric car comments on public charging. What do you think of the UK public charging network in general? Some are very good others are a disaster, also it’s all the apps you need, they should all be contactless with a keyboard in case it asks for your […]
Public charging review – Skoda ENYAQ iV 80, Mr T
Mr T runs a Skoda ENYAQ iV 80 electric car comments on public charging. What do you think of the UK public charging network in general? To be honest, I mainly charge on the home charger. We have relatives in Scotland and every time we travel we have issues with charging times, availability and […]

J.Thomas runs a Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV 12kWh 2018 and shares his thoughts on public charging. What do you think of the UK public charging network in general? I’d like to use an ‘unpublishable’ word! On a trip to Northumberland last year, our day trips were all within electric range of a charge point, except […]
Public charging review – MG5 EV 2022, Geo68
Geo68 runs a MG5 EV electric car comments on public charging. What do you think of the UK public charging network in general? Since I can only use public charging it’s really annoying when an ICE car is parked in the only free bay. Also, the number of apps I need and the different […]
Public charging review: Tesla Model 3 2021, David
David runs a Tesla Model 3 electric car comments on public charging. What do you think of the UK public charging network in general? Unreliable – can never be really certain the charger will work and not be blocked by an ICE car or an inconsiderate EV Complex – no standard operation method, some […]
Public charging review: Kia Soul EV 2018, Derek
Derek runs a Kia Soul EV 30kWh 2018. What do you think of the UK public charging network in general? The infrastructure just isn’t good enough e.g. rapid chargers with two parking bays but only one car can charge at a time, what’s that all about?! When chargers go faulty for whatever reason they […]
Public charging review 2022: Peugeot Partner Electric, Aimforcharginghubs
Aimforcharginghubs runs a Peugeot Partner Electric van. What do you think of the UK public charging network in general? Not fit for purpose. I did have high hopes for Gridserve but 2 chargers per motorway service station (with only one CHAdeMO) is ridiculous. I aim for charging hubs and InstaVolt usually have more than […]
