2. EV NEWS: SKY NEWS

3. EV TIP: TYRES
Tyres are key to driving in wintery conditions, so consider switching to winter or all-season tyres if you live somewhere where snow and ice are common in winter.
4. EV TAX: GOV.UK
Vehicle tax for electric, zero or low emission vehicles. How the Vehicle Excise Duty (VED) changes from 1 April 2025 will affect your vehicle. From 1 April 2025, registered keepers of electric, zero or low emission cars, vans and motorcycles will need to pay vehicle tax in the same way as registered keepers of petrol and diesel vehicles. This change will apply to both new and existing vehicles.
5. EV REVIEW: CAR WOW
Land Rover Defender 110
Land Rover Defender 110 Over an almost 80-year history, the name Land Rover Defender became a living legend of a vehicle, as prized for its iconic looks and character as for its off-road abilities (although not for its on-road comfort and refinement as there was essentially none). Re-invented for the 21st century — rather like a modernistic barn conversion with a jacuzzi and a home cinema — the current Defender is proving wildly successful for Land Rover, with more than 110,000 sold around the world last year.
