1. EV APP OF THE WEEK: ELECRTOVERSE

Easily find and start a charge. The Electroverse card and app give you one-tap access to hundreds of thousands of chargers across the UK & Europe. Plus, you can plan charging routes to any destination and tailor the experience to your EV.

 


2. EV NEWS: EVPOWERED

UK Government rumoured to be planning new EV subsidies. The UK Government is considering new subsidies to boost private sales of electric cars, according to reports. The Financial Times reported that ministers were in talks with the vehicle finance sector to explore how the government could support lower cost loans to boost the uptake of EVs.


3. EV TIP: GIVE YOURSELF SPACE

In wintery weather – or if your visibility is reduced – you may want to allow a little extra space between your EV and the vehicle in front of you. This extra distance gives you more time to react to unexpected situations and reduces the need for sudden braking on slippery or icy surfaces.

 

4. EV CAMPER: TOP SPEED

Meet The Companies Making Tesla Cybertruck Campers A Reality. One of the biggest appeals of the Tesla Cybertruck is its promised versatility, a lot of which sits in its obscure bed design. It's been the center of a lot of controversy for practical and quality reasons, but most existing owners appear to swear by its execution. Some of these owners argue that their motivation for purchasing the expensive electric truck is so that they can take it camping.


5. EV REVIEW: AUTOCAR

Rolls-Royce Spectre

Rolls-Royce fights the habit of 120 years and launches its first electric car. It’s a widely held misconception that electric cars are a modern phenomenon, and the new Rolls-Royce Spectre happens to be an excellent subject with which to dispel this myth. At the beginning of the 20th century, just as fate was preparing the meeting of well-to-do autophile and car dealer Charles Rolls and mercurial engineer Henry Royce, EVs were very much in vogue.

6. EV CHARGING ETIQUETTE: RAC

Electric car charging etiquette – the dos and don’ts of EV charging. Charging an electric car away from home takes longer and requires more forward-planning than filling up a conventional internal combustion engine (ICE) car with petrol or diesel. While EV public charging infrastructure is improving as time goes on, it's still not perfect. As a result, there are a few written – and unwritten – rules around this process. Our guide will help you to charge your electric vehicle (EV) quickly and efficiently, with maximum consideration for other drivers and minimum stress. It will stand you in good stead for our increasingly electric future.

 
Until next time. Have a fantastic week!
