What EV charging networks should I sign up to?
We’ve just taken delivery of the new Honda e. We have a home charger which gives us the range we need in London, but I need to think about charging it when out and about in the south east and further afield. Can you advise what networks we should sign up to?

The Polar Plus network is a good start. It provides access to more than 7000 public chargers for £7.85 a month. You can have a free trial for three months, too, to decide how useful it is for your needs. It's also worth signing up to Ecotricity's Electric Highway if you're planning to drive on longer motorway journeys.
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.
