No driveway? No problem

You can charge on the street using nearby public chargers — including lamppost chargers and dedicated kerbside bays.

For many drivers, it’s as simple as plugging in near home overnight, or topping up while you’re out. With thousands of chargers already in place and more being added every day, it’s becoming a normal part of everyday driving.

Yes — especially if you have chargers near your home or along your regular routes.

Most drivers quickly fall into a routine: plugging in overnight nearby, or topping up while parked during the day. You don’t need to change how you drive — it just becomes part of your normal routine.

Most drivers don’t have a charger directly outside — but often there are options within a short walk.

You can also charge while you’re out, whether that’s at supermarkets, car parks, or other public locations. The network is expanding quickly, so availability is improving all the time.

With this offer, it often is.

With 50% off lamppost and kerbside charging through Ubitricity and Connected Kerb, or included charging credit through Electroverse, driving electric can cost as little as around 7p per mile — significantly less than many petrol cars.

You can choose the option that suits you best when you lease your car:

  • £400 with an approved used car lease

Whichever you choose, you’ll have simple access to a wide network of public chargers.

You can find nearby chargers, check availability, and start charging easily — all in one place.

For most drivers, yes.

If you can access chargers near your home, work, or regular routes, charging without a driveway can fit easily into your routine — and often costs less than running a petrol car.
