Winter driving can be some of the most trechorous, and in an EV, if you’re not in the know it can seem even more daunting. Octopus EV is here to help you beat the freeze.
Charlie, our Community Management Specialist here at Octopus EV, will be your host and run you through how to get your car ready for the winter, but also how to get the most out of it on the day of traveling as well. As well as traveling long distance in many EVs, Charlie has spent time in Norway racing cars on ice lakes. Armed with this knowledge, winter driving should be a breeze. .
