Benefits of driving electric

There are many compelling reasons for switching to electric. Join us as we look at some examples…

Enhanced space - Because the vast majority of EVs use single-gear transmission, they don’t have a bulky transmission tunnel, which means there’s more room for passengers to stretch out and relax.

Low running costs - A 100% electric vehicle like the Honda e or the e:Ny1 is exceptionally cost-effective to run, simply because electricity is much cheaper than fuel. What’s more, you save money on Vehicle Excise Duty because EVs are currently zero rated.

Zero-emission driving - Electric vehicles (EVs) produce no CO2 or NOx emissions whatsoever, which means they’re very environmentally friendly, wherever you happen to travel.

Types of electric/hybrid vehicles explained

What makes a hybrid car different from an electric car? Please read on to find out.

Electric An electric vehicle is exactly that: fully electric. It’s powered by an electric motor which is provided energy by a high-capacity battery (and which requires manual charging). You can top-up the battery at home, at work or at one of several thousand UK-wide public access points. EVs are extremely affordable to run, and they produce no harmful emissions whatsoever.

Plug-in hybrid While a PHEV runs mainly on fuel, it also offers an all-electric driving range (an average of 37 miles). Although not as efficient as an EV, a PHEV is nevertheless very economical to run, and it produces fewer emissions than a regular combustion-engined vehicle. PHEVs require manual charging.

Hybrid A hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) is equipped with a combustion engine which is boosted by an electric motor. This enables instant torque and high-speed power boosts. HEVs offer self-charging convenience.

What is a hybrid car?

A hybrid car features a combustion engine, an electric motor and a self-charging battery.

What is a plug-in hybrid?

While a plug-in hybrid runs chiefly on petrol/diesel, it’s capable of an average all-electric range of 37 miles. This means it’s very fuel-efficient and produces significantly fewer emissions than a regular car.

How long does it take to charge an electric car?

The Honda e or e:Ny1 takes roughly 24 minutes to achieve a 20% to 80% charge when hooked-up to a rapid-charging (50kW) public connector.

If you want to save money on fuel while producing fewer emissions, yes. For fully impartial advice, please contact your local Johnsons Cars Honda dealership today.
