A recent report from the United Kingdom highlights a maturing charging network and a reduction in range anxiety. Thethat the percentage of breakdown callouts for low battery has halved in the past 12 months. They have found that range anxiety does not match reality — half of the callouts were for anxious drivers who had not actually run out of range but from drivers panicked when their cars warned them thatA little planning and using a phone charging app can go a long way.
“Electrification is going mainstream and potential EV owners shouldn’t be put off by myths about range. Once you have tried an EV it is hard to go back,” Edmund King, AA president said. An AA survey has found similar concerns to what we have here in Australia, and, I would hazard a guess, worldwide —, and charge post design should consider users with limited mobility and/or disabilities. As I get older and stiffer , I feel the need to open the car door completely in order to enter and exit. A wide parking space is preferred.
