BRADFORD has been named in top 10 cheapest UK cities to run an electric car, according to a study.
Vanarama measured the UK’s 25 most populous cities on five cost categories associated with electric motoring – from the obvious charging rates to how much of your wage an electric vehicle (EV) lease requires – and ranked them from cheapest to costliest, based on their total index score.
Bradford was ninth cheapest in the ranking, with a total index score of 60.8 out of 100.
In Bradford, the cost of an EV lease as percentage of salary was 15.2. It costs £11.10 for at-home EV charging. The cost of public EV charging in Bradford was £18.91.
The study found Coventry to be the cheapest city to run an EV, scoring 77.6 out of 100.
