We strongly advise considering your driving habits prior to choosing among the various fuel types. Do you tend to drive in the city or on open roads and motorways? How many miles do you drive in an average week?

Electric, plug-in hybrid and petrol work well for short trips. If you drive long distances on a daily basis, an electric car is good - especially if you can charge at home or at work. If you have a daily commute over longer distances, a modern electric car can be a great choice - especially if you have access to charging at home or at work. Diesel cars may still be relevant in some cases with very long journeys and lack of charging options. Keep in mind that diesel engines with high emissions have been banned from entering cities in a range of countries.

Electric cars are getting more and more popular

Electric cars are becoming increasingly popular in the UK due to their environmental benefits, cost-effectiveness in terms of fuel and maintenance, and the government's commitment to reducing carbon emissions, which includes incentives for electric vehicle buyers. The adoption of electric vehicles like the Ford Explorer plays a crucial role in the journey towards more sustainable and eco-friendly transport options.

Advantages of purchasing a pre-owned electric car

A great deal of upsides come with opting for a pre-owned electric car. Some of the advantages are:

1. Lower purchase price: Pre-owned electric vehicles are typically less expensive than brand-new models. The reduced pricing of these vehicles extends the reach of electric vehicle technology to more buyers.

2. Environmental impact: Picking a used electric vehicle over a new one additionally reduces its effect on the environment. The fabrication of a new car, notably its battery, has a substantial ecological footprint. Investing in a used car indicates you're not furthering this environmental impact.

3. Improved battery life: The unease over battery endurance in electric vehicles has subsided as technological developments have emerged. Many used EVs still have a substantial portion of their battery life remaining, and replacement costs are decreasing.

4. Performance and technology: A great deal of today's electric vehicles provide outstanding performance and the latest technological advancements. Cars that are a few years old still have the potential to offer a technologically advanced driving experience.

5. Government incentives: Though not as much as with new electric vehicles, used electric cars might still qualify for government subsidies, including lesser road tax and access to areas with restricted emissions.

The Ford Explorer is only offered in the SUV body type in the UK. SUV is short for Sport Utility Vehicle, and this is easily one of the most popular cars on the market today. The style is versatile, and the ride height is higher than traditional cars, which is a key selling point.
