REASONS TO GO ELECTRIC

GOING ELECTRIC IS EASIER THAN EVER

No more trips to the pump, zero emissions when driving, reduced maintenance costs, as well as tax breaks and low emission zone benefits. There are plenty of benefits of electric vehicles.  

So, with us on hand to guide you through the advantages of electric cars, find out why now’s the time to switch.

WHY GO ELECTRIC?

Explore the benefits of electric cars before making the switch.

ZERO-EMISSIONS DRIVING   

Drive with total peace of mind that your EV isn’t contributing to emissions in the air while driving. 

NO MORE TRIPS TO THE PUMP  

Electric vehicles offer uninterrupted travel from origin point to destination. For all but the longest journeys.

LOWER RUNNING COSTS 

EVs have fewer moving parts than traditional vehicles. That means less maintenance, lower running costs, and a longer lifespan. 

TAX BREAKS, AND EMISSION ZONE BENEFITS

Tax breaks and other financial incentives can make going electric even more attractive.

INSTANT TORQUE FOR RESPONSIVE ACCELERATION 

The experience of driving an EV is like no other, with instant torque and powerful acceleration.

CHARGE AT HOME, ON THE ROAD AND AT WORK 

A remarkable network of charging points is being developed across the country. Now you can charge nearly anywhere you go. 

LOWER EMISSIONS 

Driving a hybrid instantly cuts your emissions while delivering a better driving experience. 

NO CHARGING POINTS  

Self-charging and mild hybrids use regenerative braking to keep the batteries charged. No need to plug in.

IMPROVED FUEL ECONOMY  

With both zero-emissions driving and electric assist, your fuel will take you further than ever before. 

SOME TAX BREAKS AND EMISSION ZONE BENEFITS  

Where available, tax breaks and other financial incentives can make owning a hybrid even more attractive.

FAMILIAR DRIVING EXPERIENCE  

Driving a hybrid is like driving a petrol or diesel vehicle. The only difference is an even-smoother ride. 

MORE CHOICE 

With hybrid models throughout the Ford range, there’s an electrified option to suit you.

ENVIRONMENTAL BENEFITS OF ELECTRIC CARS

All electrified vehicles help reduce emissions, and fully electric vehicles completely eliminate emissions while driving. As more people make the switch to electric driving, local air pollution, particularly in busy cities, will gradually improve.

CHARGE YOUR ELECTRIC VEHICLE WITH RENEWABLE ENERGY

You can increase the environmental benefits of your electric car further by using renewable energy to charge your EV. Doing so reduces your emissions and carbon footprint even further. You could do this by recharging your electric car from a solar panel system during the day. Alternatively, you could receive your electricity from a renewable energy supplier.
