Why go electric?
- Sustainability
Switching to electric is better for the environment. With no exhaust emissions, electric vehicles offer one of the easiest ways that we can contribute to reduced CO2 emissions from road transport.
- Range
The range of electric vehicles is increasing all the time, with the latest generation offering 400-500kms and more on a single charge. It is more than enough for the daily driving requirements of most of us, without the need for extra charging on the way.
- Availability
More electric vehicle makes and models are becoming available in New Zealand all the time. As car manufacturers invest more in electric and hybrid vehicles, this means a wider choice at more competitive prices for you.
- Total Cost of Ownership
Simple economies of scale will see the total cost of ownership (TCO) of EVs trend down quite quickly. The increased R&D in cheaper and more effective batteries, as well as the increased manufacturing and sales will see TCO comparisons favour EVs in many cases.
