It's EV Tuesday!

22nd September 2026

Good morning to our EV Tuesday readers.

Happy Tuesday EV Owners!

Here we are, a new week is upon us, the sun is still shining (not too sure for how much longer), the sky is still blue and we are heading towards the end of September. Before you know it we will be mentioning the 'C' word. Keep an eye out as there may be some offers happening!

This week, we have been super busy in the warehouse building all your cables that you have ordered! It certainly does keep us busy. We have also been researching new hints and tips for you, so settle down and take a read through this weeks' EV Tuesday newsletter.

We will be posting this to our social media channels including Twitter & Reddit (check out r/evcables subreddit). If you have access to our blog, you will get an extra item :) 

Get involved and give us any ideas in the comments, they may well get used next week!
 
Right, ready.....steady.........GO!!
  
Feedback, Requests, Questions? 
As always, please give us feedback on Twitter. Which item is your favourite? What do you want more or less of? Other suggestions? Just send a tweet to @ev_cables and put #EVTuesdays at the end so we can find it.
 
Have a great week everyone and happy reading!

The Chinese brand only arrived in the UK last year but is planning a major expansion after shifting more than 29,000 vehicles in 12 months.



3. EV TIP: GET ADVICE FROM THE COMMUNITY

Get advice from the EV community. "My top tip when planning an EV journey is to take advice from other EV drivers who have been there before,”

“Most EV brands have a forum where you can seek advice from drivers of the same car, such as the Nissan Leaf Owners forum, the Kia e-Niro Owners forum and many more.”

"When you are planning your journey, make sure you check out any comments from Zap-Map users for valuable info. On Zap-Map you can check out the chat channel on individual charge points, and you will see feedback on charge experience and other info, such as whether there is a coffee shop nearby – plus pictures to help you locate the charger."

“And don’t forget to check-in on Zap-Map when you charge to help others!”


 

4. EV FACTS: EDF ENERGY

How to charge them, how they work and how good they are for the environment are some of the most frequently asked questions we receive. There are also some lesser-known facts about electric cars that we’ve discovered that we thought we’d like to share with you.


5. EV REVIEW: THAI AUTO NEWS


Chery Q

The Chery Q competes against the BYD Atto 1, Aion UT and Geely EX2, and being the latest to enter the market, boasts best-in-class features and functionality. In this review we check out many outstanding features of this new EV, whether it's the 70-liter frunk with powered lid, powered tailgate with handsfree function or secret storage under the rear seat cushion. We also drove it from Kanchanaburi province to Bangkok in order to find out the energy consumption when driven long-distance.
