@driver_denny: Everyone talks about the savings of switching to electric, but what happens when you can't charge at home? I've done the maths, and there are a few things worth considering before making the switch. #uber #uberdriver #rideshare #electricvehicles #hybridcars

You cannot take charging at home out of the equation, because most EV owners charge at home. Public Chargers are for long trip only.

EV CHARGING: A FEW THINGS TO CLEAR UP! 😂 Since the comments keep coming, let's clear a few things up! 1. HOME CHARGING Yes, home charging is considerably cheaper. I've never disputed that. But not everyone has a driveway or the option to install a charger. Plenty of drivers, particularly in London, rely on public charging. 2. WHERE DID MY PRICES COME FROM? Zapmap's UK Charging Price Index, October 2026: - Standard charging: 54p/kWh - Rapid charging: 82p/kWh These are average public pay-as-you-go prices, not figures I've plucked out of thin air! :P 3. CHEAPER CHARGING DEALS Absolutely, there are cheaper tariffs and memberships available. But prices vary depending on the network, location, membership and time of day. They're not guaranteed to be available to everyone. 4. TIME IS MONEY! Cheaper charging doesn't remove the time spent waiting. For private hire drivers, that's potentially lost earnings. As the Goblin in WoW says: "Time is money, friend!" 😂 5. THE 2028 MILEAGE CHARGE From April 2028, the planned charge is 3p per mile for fully electric cars and 1.5p for plug-in hybrids. THE POINT? I'm not saying EVs are always more expensive. I'm looking at the reality for drivers who cannot charge at home, using average public charging prices and factoring in the time spent charging. That's what the video is about. 🙂

In long term some electric cars can go up to 300 to 450k mile with no issue and best to charge at home

Plain and simply you won't buy an EV without the option to charge at home. The one exception being you have a Tesla with free supercharging. Miles off it here Denny.
