Electric Moments Series One

In this series, Fully Charged Show's Robert Llewelyn is joined by guests from LeasePlan to talk about the importance of driver familiarisation, how to reimburse EV drivers and everything else in between.

Episode 1: Simplifying the Switch to an Electric Vehicle

In the first episode of our new series with Fully Charged we welcome Robert, an EV owner for years, and Maddie Moate, an EV owner of just over a year, to share their experiences of driving Electric.

Episode 2: EV Charging

We know that charging is a key topic for most people thinking about getting an electric car. So, in the second episode of our Electric Moments series, Robert and Maddie explore what’s involved. They look at home, public and on-street charging, as well as talking with a long-term driver of electric cars to get their take on what charging is really like.

Episode 3: Driving efficiently

In our third episode, we look at how driving efficiently can help you maximise the range you achieve from your battery. We hope you enjoy it.

Episode 4: The real costs of owning an EV

In our fourth episode, we’re taking a close look at the real costs of owning an electric vehicle. You might be surprised by just how affordable they are. We hope you enjoy it.

Episode 5: Keeping up with the Greens

In our fifth episode, we’re discussing how getting an electric vehicle can be the start of something bigger for people who want to reduce environmental impact – and a way to champion greener living. We also speak with EV drivers about why they switched and what other green changes they have made since then. We hope you enjoy the video.

Episode 6: The road to 2030

In our sixth episode, we’re looking a little further down the road to the 2030 ban on the sale of new petrol and diesel cars and vans. We explore what it involves and explain how it could pay to consider your options sooner rather than later. We hope you find it interesting.

Episode 7: Why it might be time to switch to an electric van

In our seventh episode, we’re turning our attention from cars to commercial vehicles. With the sharp rise in home deliveries since the pandemic started, there’s a lot of demand for electric vans – and many more models for companies to choose from. We explore the options and look at the latest developments in range, charging and affordability. We hope you find it interesting.

Episode 8: The benefits of going electric

In our final episode, we’re talking about tax. From benefit in kind to salary sacrifice, we look at how the current tax rules incentivise companies and drivers to use electric vehicles. We also hear from a fleet manager who explains why electric vehicles make so much sense for fleets that it should be an easy decision to switch.

Episode 9: Hints and Tips from Electric Vehicle Drivers

If you’re thinking seriously about an electric car or have even put in your order and are waiting for it to arrive, this is the video for you. We talked with lots of electric car drivers at The Fully Charged Live show and have pulled together videos of their best hints and tips to help make your switch as smooth as possible. These explore what it’s like to go electric and how best to handle both charging and range anxiety. We also look at some of the ways you can learn more about electric cars and highlight places to do test drives and get advice.
