Before you finalize your choice of fuel type, we suggest thoroughly evaluating your driving habits. How many miles do you drive in a normal week? Do you take many short trips, or do you tend to drive long distances?

Electric cars, plug-in hybrids and petrol are great for short distances. For long daily driving, electric cars are a strong choice if you can charge. 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. Note that there are countries where diesel engines with heavy emissions are forbidden from entering city areas.

Because of the lack of roof, thickener is applied underneath the car to strengthen the chassis.
