The Government is currently offering a grant for 75 per cent towards one chargepoint per household/eligible vehicle, up to £500 - provided you're a named driver on an electric or plug-in hybrid vehicle and have off-road parking. This means you can pick up a home charger for less than £300.
If you cover no more than 100 miles per day and have easy access to a charging point at home or work, then an EV is ideal for you.
