Ginny Buckley, chief executive of electric vehicle (EV) buying and advice site Electrifying.com, said: "A lack of reliable charging in northern cities directly undermines confidence in EV driving. This is a real North–South divide. When one London borough has more chargers than five major northern cities combined, it sends a clear signal to drivers outside the South that the system isn't working for them."
Buckley said Coventry also has more chargers than Liverpool, Leeds, Manchester, Newcastle and Sheffield combined, despite having only one eighth of the population.
