4. EV NEWS: BBC NEWS
An electric vehicle (EV) car sharing scheme has been launched as part of a new trial. Oxfordshire County Council, Oxford City Council, and Cherwell, South Oxfordshire, Vale of White Horse and West Oxfordshire district councils have teamed up to provide the cars across the county. The 14 new EVs will be available for people to hire on an hourly or daily basis.
5. EV REVIEW: GREEN CAR GUIDE
Toyota bZ4X
The Toyota bZ4X is the brand’s first all-electric car and it’s fun to drive; it even managed to make it through a week of snow, despite only having standard road tyres. Toyota has been a global leader with hybrid cars, but it hasn’t embraced battery electric cars. In fact the company has only just launched its first pure EV, the bZ4X (not a memorable name). We must admit that our expectations for Toyota’s first EV weren’t high, so were we pleasantly surprised…?

Until next time. Have a fantastic week!
