0333 370 3701 info@singleparentsonholiday.co.uk How to travel responsibly by car There are many ways of saving on your carbon footprint and expensive fuel when deciding to drive on holiday. To start with, it is a good idea to service your vehicle before you leave. The right tyre pressure and traction can make your car run more efficiently. You will also save on fuel if you drive smoothly, i.e., at a steady pace braking less and avoiding high speeds. Keep the air conditioning down, or if you have it running, ensure the windows are closed or you will literally be throwing money out of the window. If you have a lot of luggage or, even worse, a roof rack, this will also add to energy consumption due to weight and poor aerodynamics, so don’t take too many unnecessary items and take the roof rack off if you do not need it.
0333 370 3701 info@singleparentsonholiday.co.uk Charging your electric car en route Electric vehicles (EVs) usually have two charging options: Standard charging via an electric socket in your home or holiday rental or charging stations at your local supermarket, town centre, or service station (often signposted as Pod Points) and rapid charging at a special charging station. The main difference is the amount of time it takes to charge your vehicle. Whilst this also depends on battery size and the speed of the charging point, you could say that a typical electric car battery takes some 8 hours to charge from empty to full if a standard household socket is used, so this is best done overnight when electricity is at its cheapest and you don’t need to hang around waiting.
