EVs produce no harmful emissions when you drive which improves local air quality and reduces carbon emissions by about 60% over the lifetime of the EV compared to an equivalent petrol vehicle in New Zealand. The government have introduced a clean car discount to make low-emissions vehicles more affordable.
The total cost of ownership of an EV is typically much less than an ICE vehicle. ‘Fuel’ costs for an EV are equivalent to about 30c/litre of petrol. Maintenance costs are also substantially lower with fewer moving parts and no oil to change.EVs use about 1/3 as much energy per km compared to an ICE equivalent vehicle.
