The cost of charging an electric vehicle (EV) depends on a variety of factors, including the vehicle’s specifications, the type of charger used, and the charging location.

Primarily, the EV model and its battery capacity significantly influence charging expenses. For instance, with the average domestic electricity rate standing at approximately 32p per kWh, fully charging a 60 kWh EV battery translates to around £17. This cost translates into an estimated 200 miles of driving range.

The Weev public network, particularly our rapid chargers, cost approximately 18p per mile.

In summary, the cost of charging an electric car is contingent on factors such as the vehicle’s battery capacity, the type of charging station utilised, and the geographical location of charging. Understanding these variables can help you to make informed decisions to optimise your charging expenses while ensuring seamless access to the Weev public network.
