Your driving behavior is an important aspect to consider when selecting a fuel type. How far do you usually drive in a standard week? Are your trips more often short ones, or do you tend to travel over long distances?

For shorter trips, electric cars, plug-in hybrids and petrol cars are great. For longer commutes, an electric car is often the best choice - especially with charging options 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.

Remember that diesel engines with high emissions are prohibited from entering cities in various countries.
