Read our Privacy noticeLess than a third (31%) of people would be willing to walk more than 10 minutes home after using a public electric vehicle (EV) charger, a new survey suggests.
But researchers also found the average walking time to a public charger for UK households is 11 minutes and 56 seconds.
Many EV drivers without off-road parking at home rely on using public chargers, often overnight.
Some 51% of EV drivers surveyed believe there are enough public chargers across the UK but this falls to 24% among EV drivers who are Motability customers.
The average walking time to public chargers was calculated by consultancy Field Dynamics in partnership with charger locator service Zapmap.
