Introduction
Electric vehicles are having quite the rise in popularity and it’s not slowing down any time soon. With EV market share hitting a new high in the UK, more drivers are starting to look seriously at electric as their next car. If you’re doing the same, you might be wondering what’s changed and why so many people are making the switch.
Let’s take a look at what’s driving this surge and how Swansway can help you explore the latest electric models across our family of brands.
What’s Behind the Growth in EV Sales?
Better ranges that suit real life
One of the biggest early worries around electric cars was range. Now, thanks to improved battery tech, many new EVs offer well over 200 miles on a single charge, with some models comfortably pushing beyond that. It means everyday errands, longer commutes and weekend trips feel far more doable without constant planning.
A growing, more reliable charging network
Charging is becoming quicker and easier. The rapid charging network continues to expand with over 80,000 charging locations in the UK and many locations now offer faster top ups that get you back on the road in around half an hour. Home charging has also improved and for many people it’s become their main way of keeping their car ready to go each morning.
Running costs that make a real difference
Electric cars still offer lower running costs than petrol or diesel, especially when you charge at home. With fewer moving parts, maintenance can be simpler too. Add in competitive finance offers available across Swansway’s brands and the switch to electric becomes even more appealing.
More choice than ever before
There’s now an electric option for almost every lifestyle. Whether you’re after something compact for city driving, a spacious SUV for family life or a premium electric model with all the latest tech, there’s plenty to explore. At Swansway, you can browse electric cars from Audi, Volkswagen, CUPRA, Honda, PEUGEOT, BYD and more.
Why EVs are Becoming Easier to Live With
Electric cars have come a long way in comfort and usability. Instant torque gives you smooth, quiet acceleration and most new models come packed with intuitive infotainment systems, clever driver assistance features and high quality interiors. It all adds up to a driving experience that feels calm, modern and surprisingly fun.
Is Now a Good Time to go Electric?
With EV demand rising, manufacturers are working harder than ever to offer great value, improved warranties and smart new features. Battery efficiency keeps improving, charging is getting simpler and the choice of models is huge. If you’ve been thinking about going electric, now’s a great moment to take a closer look.
