The picture of “Nobody wants an EV” and “the infrastructure isn’t up to it in the UK.

45% year on year growth in pure BEVs.

Not the usual suspects taking the top spaces, who knew that cheaper and smaller EVs could work… (Renault Twingo hit the showrooms this month too…)

Over 50kW up to 600kW is the growth area in 2026.

Over 29,000 50kW+ chargers, which are monitored by the UK gov with a 99% expected uptime to avoid fines and “future licencing difficulties”

If you want to feel confident about charging, hubs are your friends, the operators know this and they are increasing the number. Existing successful hubs are also expanding, not shown in the data here, but hubs are now usually 12+ and some are 40+
