What is the overall cost of running an Electric Car?

Although there is no longer a government grant for electric cars the fact remains that cost of running an electric car is reasonable. Electric cars can benefit from a range of savings - for instance on access to city centres like Central Birmingham, or on parking. Providing you have the right electricity tariff at home or charge at affordable public station, their electricity cost will also come out cheaper than fuel.

Do Electric car charging points cost vary by location?

Yes, the electric car charging cost varies depending on the electric vehicle charging station. Fortunately, unlike other electric cars, a Kia electric car boasts access to Kia Charge, which provides all electric charging points' details, including operator, connector type, power and pricing.

Do Electric cars pay tax?

If your Electric car is fully battery powered, there is no electric car tax to pay as excise duty for the 2023/2024 tax year.

Why is it more cost effective to run an electric car?

Dependent on the type of journeys you do, an electric car is cheap to recharge compared to filling the fuel tank on a combustion engine powered car, especially if you can benefit from cheaper overnight electricity tariffs. Low BIK rates for business users also make electric cars a cost effective option.

How does the maintenance of an electric car differ from that of a combustion engine car?

As there are less moving parts than a combustion engine, the servicing schedule doesn’t include aspects such as oil changes, and due to regenerative braking there is often less wear imposed on the brake pads and discs.

What factors could affect the range of an electric car?

Similar to a combustion engine car which can have fuel economy affected by different factors, an electric car is the same. Outside temperature, number of passengers or luggage in the car, driving style, and load on the battery from aspects such as heated seats, or air conditioning can alter the driving range that can be achieved.
