The Committee for Climate Change suggests that at least 5% of the car fleet in Scotland should be electric by 2020 in order to reach “critical mass” for a larger roll out. Part of the reason for installing public charge points is to help drivers overcome their fear of range anxiety but this does not come cheap.

You may be wondering if electric and hybrid cars are cheap to insure. Some may argue that a gas-engine car shouldn’t be part of the green vehicle category because it runs a traditional combustion engine. Getting an electric or hybrid vehicle is just one part of making your vehicle experience as green as possible. Car Repair.

A decade later, in the 2010s, the battery EV began an astounding reversal of fortune, thanks in no small part to the engineers at ACP, whose electric-drive technology informed the development of the Roadster, the car that launched Tesla Motors. By the 2020s, automakers around the world were producing millions of EVs a year.
