Electric cars - running costs.
On R4 You and Yours today - for those who may wish to listen again -
there was a bit about some filling stations providing fast charge points. At last, you might say. And they interviewed an actual punter with a Leaf. Worth a listen. ;-) One point he made was he charges it at home at 12p per kW.hr. A full charge costing about 2 and taking him about 80 miles. The fast charge points will cost 50p per kW.hr and only charge to 80%. So as a rough guestimate 7 quid for 70 miles. Not much different from a small diesel. And, of course, no duty on that electricity, unlike petrol and diesel. -- *Ah, I see the f**k-up fairy has visited us again Dave Plowman London SW To e-mail, change noise into sound. |
