Keep calm and carry on driving electric! We just opened Ramac Way, our first charging station in London 🇬🇧 and 11th in the UK. With up to 6x300 kW of charging speed, we’re ready to power your journey this Platinum Jubilee weekend ⚡️⚡️⚡️

There's a strong argument for this being the most important new vehicle to arrive next year. Ford's E-Transit Custom is due to start production in 2023, with 236 mile range and V2L charging #EV

Today is SMMT Test Day, and the weather is perfect for driving & chatting… and on Saturday I got a positive Covid test. A stag-do, Ford launch, and a few hours at Millbrook was a terrible time for my first double-line to hit! Have fun all who are going - wish I were there.

White cars and British roads simply don’t mix do they? After around 100 miles of rural driving everything’s

It quickly results in a terse response from the washer jets when called upon to do their thing after but a short journey

Still, all is well. I simply have a brown car now rather than the white one I started with (sorry @VWUKPress) P.S. Worry ye not fellow road users; number plate will be cleaned before leaving… much good it will do.

Mini Recharged: Interesting concept, and I reckon it will be a hoot to drive - cost may well decide how many people turn their classic Mini into a factory-converted electric one. Range & charging speed mean local(ish) use only most of the time. bit.ly/3fVOHX4

You know, I think this whole electric car thing might just catch on
