Testimonials

I'd recommend this book to both petrol heads and electric car enthusiasts alike, because whether an electric car would suit your needs or not, reading this book ensures that you're really well informed about the realities of electric car ownership.

Andy Scrivener, Product Manager, Mercedes Benz.

One man I have met in this process who helped me understand more about electric vehicles than anyone else is Michael Boxwell. He is not swept along by a wave of unfounded optimism, (an occasional failing of mine). He is a realist who knows from long, direct experience what a difference this technology can make.

Robert Llewellyn, Actor, TV Presenter and electric car advocate.

This is a fascinating read for anyone interested in cars. That's because it's based on the real world experience of people who actually own or lease electric cars on a daily basis. It is mercifully free of the opinionated ranting that motoring journalists and TV 'personalities' are often reduced to on this subject.
