Electric vehicles (EVs) are becoming increasingly popular as more drivers seek eco-friendly and cost-effective alternatives to petrol and diesel cars. At AMT Auto, we offer a variety of electric leasing vehicles, helping you embrace sustainable driving without the long-term financial commitment. To help you get the best from your electric vehicle, here are five essential tips for efficient and hassle-free charging.
Planning your charging stops is crucial, especially for long-distance travel. The charging infrastructure for electric vehicles is expanding, but being prepared will save you time and reduce range anxiety. Apps such as Zap-Map can help you locate public charging stations along your route. This ensures you’re never far from a recharge, even in remote areas.
AMT Auto offers a range of flexible electric vehicle subscription options, allowing you to experience EV driving without the long-term commitment of ownership.
Home charging is one of the most convenient ways to maintain your EV’s battery. Installing a home charger allows you to top up overnight and using off-peak electricity rates could save you money on energy costs. With home charging, you can start each day with a full battery, giving you peace of mind for daily commutes or longer journeys.

Public charging networks are vital when you're on the move. Rapid charging stations, often found at motorway services, can boost your battery up to 80% in under 30 minutes, which is ideal for long trips. Knowing where these stations are located is key for any EV driver.

Charging speeds vary, and knowing the differences can help optimise your EV experience. The type of charger and your vehicle's battery capacity determine how quickly you can charge.
Charging apps such as PlugShare and Chargemap are invaluable for EV drivers. These apps help you locate available chargers, track your charging history, and even calculate your charging costs. Using these tools can make owning or leasing an electric vehicle much easier and more cost-efficient.
