A UK-centric Electric Vehicles community, where discussion/news of the wider European continent is welcome.

All discussion of EVs (and hybrids for the moment), charging networks, etc, welcome!

No USA/Americas news unless it is relevant to the UK/Europe - most of the existing EV communities on Lemmy are awash with US discussion, please use one of those. US news and discussion will be removed.

The main "global" EV community is !electricvehicles@slrpnk.net

More exciting news for anyone with an EV driving the M4 frequently. All new V4 machine design sites have the capability to pay without the Tesla app, by using your contactless card on the reader. Previous units didn’t have this panel, but the law is changing next year so all UK machines are able to process contactless.

So, there are currently x2 v4 sites open. There are 20 Tesla sites open to all vehicles and the key component is, they are significantly cheaper than for example Gridserve who own the chargers opposite these ones at Reading Moto Westbound.

Also note, the cable is long enough for Tesla charge points on the left rear side. It’s also long enough for most EVs but you may need to park slightly uncomfortably if your port is rear right side.

You can see these sites in the pinned topic of this discussion group.
