New Peak Rates Mean Charging Electric Cars More Expensive Than Gas

electric car chargingNew peak pricing at electric car charge points can leave consumers worse off than if they stuck to traditional petrol-engined vehicles, according to a new analysis from the AA.

Previous analysis by motoring organizations has shown the cost of charging electric vehicles has soared in recent months, driven by rising energy prices partly triggered by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine last February. [emphasis, links added]


Rapid charge points used by motorists topping up on long drives are now nearly £10 more expensive than filling up a car with petrol, the RAC revealed last week.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
