AN ELECTRIC VEHICLE CAR CLUB
“The E-Car booking system (which provides members with a live
charge reading) has been very important in making sure that a
first time user’s experience of an electric car is positive. Under the
car club model turning up to a car and there being insufficient
charge for your journey can be very damaging to the electric car
experience. With many pre-misconceptions around electric cars,
the E-Car Team is doing a great job in educating the local
community that they operate in.”
