DISCOUNTS,DRIVING INSTRUCTORS AND DIRTY PUMPS

NHS & EMERGENCY SERVICES DISCOUNTS

We really are experiencing unprecedented times at the moment, but something remains a constant… The NHS and Emergency Services. Regardless of what’s happening, NHS and Emergency Services staff are still working, harder than ever to make sure the country stays as healthy as possible, regularly putting themselves in the firing line with very limited resources. We’ve all seen what they have to put up with

As a token of our appreciation, we are now offering discounts of up to 75% on all weekly rentals for Blue Light Card Holders! If you know somebody that may benefit from the use of an EV, give us a shout. We can also offer delivery and collection anywhere in the UK for Emergency Services and NHS key workers. We’ve also been taking part in Joe Wicks’s PE lessons every morning on YouTube. So far Joe has amassed over £80,000 in ad revenue and has pledged to donate every penny (including future revenue) straight to the NHS.

FUEL STATIONS

With the news that many fuel stations are facing closure due to the lack of business, getting fuel from your local garage may become more difficult in the coming weeks, with some stations already choosing to close. Prices have suffered record falls this week, the lowest since current records began in June 2003. Although prices are tumbling, prices aren’t falling at pumps, due to the way wholesale fuel is bought. Many retailers buy fuel months in advance, and the knock-on effect will take its toll. There have also been some not so great reports that Fuel Stations are a breeding ground for COVID-19 with the pumps being handled by hundreds of customers, with little to no cleaning in between. It’s time to consider an EV.

Charging at home, you can ensure your vehicle has the range it requires, at a much lower price and without risking contamination from an unclean pump. Our vehicles come with all the necessary cables to be able to charge using a standard UK plug socket at home and on Public Chargers now found at supermarkets and retail parks. You can always take advantage of the ever-increasing DC Rapid Charger network up and down the country but you still need to take precautions when using those. Feel free to check out our dedicated Charging page, give us a call, or start a live chat, and we’ll help answer any questions you may have. We’ve got EV’s for hire to suit you, including the fabulous MG ZS EV which is brand new to our fleet!

CALLING ALL DRIVING INSTRUCTORS

At Volt-Age we believe that all sectors of the motor industry can benefit from the uptake of EV’s, and Driving Instructors are no exception. There are already thousands of pupils choosing to learn in an automatic car but often these cars are Petrol Hybrids such as the Toyota Yaris and Corolla, which offer very little benefit over the latest Petrol and Diesel cars. How about making the switch to a full EV? You could ask other ADI Instructors who have already taken the plunge? We did just that. Take a look at our dedicated Dual Control page here to find out what they said.
