Electric vehicles (EVs) in the UK now average 8,740 miles annually, surpassing petrol cars by 444 miles. This marks a dramatic change from a decade ago when EVs trailed by over 2,200 miles. 

The improvement is due to better technology, more charging stations, and a wider array of models. Since April 2023, EV mileage has shown consistent growth, while petrol car mileage has dropped by 12% over the past ten years. 

The shift reflects changing driving habits influenced by remote work, improved public transport, and rising environmental awareness, indicating a long-term move towards electric vehicles.
