Public charging network InstaVolt has partnered with Select Car Leasing, becoming its recommended rapid charging provider.
The partnership aims to encourage Select customers to make the switch to EV by assuring they have access to highly reliable, rapid public charging wherever they need it. The collaboration will also give drivers access to ongoing offers and promotions from the UK charging network, providing drivers with insight and tips to make them feel confident in transitioning to electric.
With the SMMT finding that battery electric vehicles accounted for over 25% of all vehicle sales in December 2021, it’s evident that demand for EVs is experiencing year on year growth as public sentiment towards electrification grows. This new collaboration aims to help progress the EV car revolution further in 2022 by encouraging Select customers to choose an EV.
InstaVolt is also working to expand its network to ensure driver confidence in the UK’s charging network increases and range anxiety is reduced. The charging network currently has more than 900 rapid chargers energised or in construction and has pledged to install 10,000 new rapid chargers over the next 10 years.
InstaVolt chief executive officer, Adrian Keen, said: “InstaVolt is excited to partner with Select Car Leasing, as it will demonstrate to drivers the vast charging infrastructure the UK currently has and will help reduce concerns drivers may have around making the switch.
“The collaboration will help to instil confidence in drivers by providing them with the information they need to seek out rapid, reliable and easy to use charge points on the InstaVolt network. With chargers at locations including Costa Coffee, Bannatyne Health Clubs, EH Booths and McDonald’s restaurants, our network is ideally located for drivers to enjoy a quick stop on longer journeys.
“InstaVolt will continue to work with best-in-class partners to make EV public charging a seamless experience for the UK’s drivers. We plan to work closely with all sectors to encourage more people to switch to EVs thus helping the government meet its zero-carbon emissions target by 2050.”
