Episode 9: Liz Allan & Jon Burdekin - What is regenerative breaking in an EV
On this episode of Electric Evolution, Liz Allan speaks to Jon Burdekin of JB Fleet Consultancy Ltd. Jon is an EV trainer who focuses on helping businesses switch their fleet to electric and educating leasing companies, brokers, and car dealers on how to better answer customers' questions. Jon also offers courses covering topics such as living with an EV, financing through salary sacrifice and selling EVs. They also discuss the different mindsets required for driving an electric vehicle, including planning ahead for charging, taking breaks during long journeys, and considering the whole life cost of ownership rather than just the initial price. To help with these charging concerns, we explore different EV charging point operators and charging location apps, such as Zap-Map. Lastly, they touch on safety concerns, such as the need for an artificial noise when reversing and the importance of properly inflated tires due to the weight of the battery. Tune in for a comprehensive overview of the world of electric vehicles.
