Sanka De Silva, Marketing Director at Kia UK said: “We want to help inform and engage with people about electric cars and dispel EV myths. As with any car and powertrain, it is crucial to understand them to get the most from them. With some people nervous about EVs, we felt that the right thing to do would be to offer our expert advice so they can find out how easily an EV can fit in people’s lifestyles. From a complete beginner to the EV world to someone looking to buy their first EV, if you have questions about going electric, the Discover EV events offer the perfect opportunity to get answers.”
Myth busting
Kia has produced a new online digital brochure comprehensively covering all electric vehicle topics including EV battery life, charging time, and charging in public. The brochure can be seen here: https://digital-brochures.kia.com/story/discover-ev-with-kia/Sanka De Silva continued: “Education is vital for customers to successfully transition to electric, and as a leader in electrification, we want to give something back to communities and help people understand EVs. There is no sales pitch here, it is simply our way of starting a conversation, and sharing information and knowledge.”
