Life with an electric vehicle
Driving electric is better for the environment and better for you. With the public charging infrastructure constantly growing, topping up your battery on the go is simple.
Then there’s the performance. Electric cars are agile, accelerate quickly, and are incredibly spacious inside.
Why you should drive an electric car
Quiet and spacious but with electric acceleration thanks to enhanced torque. Electric cars also have far fewer components so and are easier to maintain.
Our ID. family shares an iconic look. Sharp and striking exterior lines, coupled with intelligent and spacious interiors make for a comfortable and stylish place to be.
Our electric cars boast exceptional range. The ID.3 for example can take you up to 347 miles (combined WLTP) on a single charge.
How much does it cost to own an EV?
Benefit your wallet
There are lots of ways owning and driving an electric car can help you save money in the long run. There are grants that make the upfront cost of a wallbox much less. There are also plenty of other money-saving benefits, including free parking in many public car parks, cheaper servicing costs, and exemption from congestion charges including ULEZ costs.
Grants and benefits
The Government runs a grant to help make installing a wallbox charger at home cheaper.
Charging at home can be cheaper than petrol, cutting down your running costs per mile. There are also many free charging stations across the UK.
Charging an electric vehicle
You can charge electric vehicles easily and flexibly. Whether you install a charger at home or prefer to top up while you’re out and about, charging is accessible, cheap, and keeps you going for miles.
Finding the right battery size
Read this guide and discover which size battery is best suited to your needs.
Range
How far your electric car can go depends on the type of battery it has.
Here are some examples.
The kind of battery your car has will vary depending on the model and level of trim. This could be the 52kwh capacity that delivers an impressive range of up to 223 miles (WLTP) respectively, on the ID.4 Style Edition and Life Edition versions.
Moving up the ID.4 battery range, the 77kwh Pro Performance, with the Life Edition version achieves up to a 328 mile (WLTP) range. Whatever trim you choose you’ll be driving towards net zero.
