ECOMMERCE business drivvn has designed a range of comparator tools that give buyers a total life view of owning an EV.
The tools help users decide on the best vehicle to meet their needs by comparing plug-in and ICE vehicles.
It is already being used by Volvo to support the launch of the XC40 Recharge, the brand’s first pure electric SUV.
The development of the tool was informed by careful analysis of the online buying habits of motorists across Europe.
Users can compare factors from range and fuel cost to the congestion charge eligibility. In addition, the comprehensive Total Cost of Ownership data allows users to build a true picture of the running costs of owning an electric vehicle.
