Saving over R700 driving an electric car on an 800km road trip
We recently travelled between Pretoria and Golden Gate National Park in the Free State and saved over R700 in fuel costs by using an electric vehicle (EV) instead of a similar petrol car.
If you are used to driving a petrol car, you will have little concern about choosing a fuel station to fill up. South Africa's retail petrol prices are regulated, which means garages charge the same prices.
