2025...The Electric Year

In a recent survey encompassing over 1,300 respondents across North America, the United Kingdom and Continental Europe, 64 per cent of people polled said they would be very likely to choose an electric vehicle (EV) for their next purchase, marking a significant milestone in the shift towards sustainable transportation


The study, provided insights from diverse stakeholders, including consumers, manufacturers, fleet operators, and EV adoption influencers and highlighted a growing inclination towards EVs 
Sustainability emerged as a primary motivation for EV adoption among consumers with almost as many influencers aiming to achieve net-zero goals. Costs were second on nearly everyone’s list supported by energy companies special “EV night rate “ tariffs


Whilst the parent brand Volkswagen have made huge headways into the EV market it is Skoda who keeps winning the awards with the Enyaq forging ahead of competition in nearly every group. It’s younger sibling the Elroq is tipped to achieve even greater fame when it arrives on our road later this year.  


General manager Nick Price who supports all the ethics behind the growth of the electric vehicle, has made a personal commitment to supporting all customers who choose to go down this route.  “We are going to encourage as many customers as possible to test drive the electric range and will be preparing information every month so that they are fully informed“
The dealership is planning loads of events for the forthcoming year including treasure hunts and competitions and will be working closely with our sponsored partners to make sure the community benefits from this initiative.
