There is no doubt that the demands of electric vehicles (EVs) continued to improve. Margins are growing, and their efficiency is closer to ordinary cars. Different technologies are still a struggle for supremacy and the expected sale price appears to be relatively high (£ 30 000 has been designed as a complement to the Prius for example). This reflects the new electric cars for sale in the UK, with almost 90% lower in 2009 compared with the peak in 2007 of car manufacturers and dealers. Almost half of electric vehicles were sold last year were small G-Wiz, which is unacceptable for a government subsidy programs, thanks to the low speed and limited range.
In January 2011, to approve the bid for 5000 has recently started a series of electric cars could be available. This grant was the idea of former Prime Minister and Minister for Transport (DFT) for about 8600 cars will be sold in the first year of the program. Meanwhile, 43 million pounds pledged to the program, which lasts until March 2012, the survey took place in January 2012. There are suggestions that the grant will continue after March 2012, albeit at a lower price.

So while the grant was confirmed by different technologies in a quiet that's probably best be informed when seeking an electric car leased before parting with their hard earned money at all. Some of the leading luxury brands to participate in the electric car. Audi lease on something that all electrical Audi A1 premium compact sedan is a better choice for now. 20 of these animals will be prosecuted in Munich in the mid-2011 supports 200 'of electric pumping stations. "Suitable for a maximum speed of 81 kmh, thanks to the hard floor lithium-ion batteries, electric Audi A1 also uses a small, single-rotor rotary engine as an" outreach "to produce 15 kW for charging. Authorized Audi to fuel, equivalent to 148.7 mpg.
BMW also has a gas-guzzling mini heart torn and replaced with a battery and electric motor. Prices for the last little mini models remain unconfirmed, and BMW leasing may be more sensible approach here. Mini E manages an impressive performance (thanks to the large battery) to a maximum speed of 95 km / h and a whopping 155 miles range, but the battery size needed for it means that you can only carry one passenger and not too sure how this will continue.
