EVs get you five times further than petrol cars for the same money

Electric vehicles (EVs) can travel up to five times further than petrol vehicles on a £50 charge. That is the claim made in new research by Uswitch, which directly compared the fuel economy of the Nissan Leaf E+ and the Volkswagen Golf across the countries in which both were available to buy. Based on UK prices, the study revealed that in the Nissan, £50 worth of electricity could give a driver 2,380 miles of travel, whereas in the petrol-fuelled Volkswagen, £50 worth of petrol would only provide 443 miles. The caveat to this is the study also suggested that the UK is the 13 th most expensive country to run EVs, with Lithuania offering the best value; more than 4,400 miles for £50 of electricity.
