When contemplating fuel type choices, reflecting on your driving habits is important. How many miles do you normally clock in a week? Is your driving characterized more by numerous short trips or by extended travels?

For short trips, range is rarely a limitation, so electric, plug-in hybrid or petrol can be fine. For longer daily journeys, consider an electric car, especially if you have the option to charge at home or at work. For longer daily commutes, a modern electric car is often suitable - especially if you can charge at home or at work.
