Although in Spain still electric and hybrid cars are not seen much on a daily basis, in certain European countries, having a vehicle of these characteristics is the order of the day. There is nothing more than looking at countries like the Netherlands, Norway or the United Kingdom, to discover the great boom in this type of car.
It was sooner or later that the case that we expose below occurred, and that is that the market for hybrids and electrics is growing more and more. It is in Milton Keynes, a town that was rebuilt after the Second World War and that today brings together several factories, such as Red Bull -the old Jaguar F1- and the Honda engine laboratory, where the first dealer for this type of car.
The dealer belongs to the company Chargemaster, and is part of a €9 million investment program for the city of Milton Keynes. Although its function will not be to sell cars, but to teach people about the capabilities and advantages of electric cars. Therefore, the dealership will serve as a space to show the public vehicles from Volkswagen, BMW, Kia, Renault, Nissan and Mitsubishi. Companies that collaborate with Chargemaster.
“The demand for electric vehicles will increase in the next five years, as a greater variety of them reach the market, which will have greater autonomy. The EV Experience Center will provide a great opportunity for those interested in electric vehicles to find out more and test drive one,” said David Martell, CEO of Chargemaster.
Chargemaster is a company that provides, both to companies and users, chargers for electric vehicles. In addition, they also take care of its installation if required. At the Milton Keynes facility there will be up to 10 vehicles available, which visitors can use for short drives for test drives. It is undoubtedly a great initiative, whether from a private company or from brands, to bring this type of car to the general public.
