The Benefits of Electric Vehicles
The Benefits of Electric Vehicles
Published on August 17, 2023
Approximately 477,000 electric vehicles (EVs) are currently being used in the United Kingdom (UK). There was a 35.4% increase in electric cars registered in August 2022, compared to the same month in 2021 and an almost 9.9% increase in electric car sales in July 2022. Their popularity is growing across Europe too. In 2020, approximately 1,325,000 electric cars were registered across the continent, an increase from 550,000 units in the previous year.
With the current rise in climate change warnings and the ongoing cost-of-living crisis, it is no wonder people are choosing to jump from their traditionally fueled cars to EVs.
Here, we discuss some of the benefits of using EVs, from financial to environmental.
Environment
The fuel we use to heat our homes and run our vehicles significantly impacts the environment. In 2020, 43% of all household emissions in the UK were due to travel and Europe’s transportation contributed to 15% of global transportation emissions.
Buying an electric vehicle can have many benefits. It is better for the environment than your traditional ICE-fueled car due to the process behind the power. EVs don’t emit carbon dioxide emissions and are not actively contributing to the rising levels of greenhouse gases.
