If you’re interested in getting an electric vehicle for your next Motability car, it’s likely that you’ve thought about charging. For many individuals, this is a perceived barrier to going electric, however, there are a number of ways to charge your car at ease.
Firstly, if you have off-street parking at home, you should be able to have a charge point fitted, at no extra cost (if it’s your first charge point). Alternatively, if you don’t have access to off-street parking, or it’s not possible to fit a home charge point, you can access a network of public charging points for easy on-street charging.
