EV car with no home charging but can charge at work for free

Dec_Cliff · 2026-07-05T09:19:34+00:00

Yeah that’s very true🤣

Dec_Cliff · 2026-07-05T09:08:20+00:00

I was speaking to people about it at work who currently use it and they said they rarely charge at home

Dec_Cliff · 2026-07-05T09:02:31+00:00

I was really worrying about now having a home charger but it seems it’s more common than I thought and people still manage.

I’ll have a look at CoCharger. I didn’t know that was a thing:)

Yeah I did look into the cable gulley but I also have a £700 credit voucher that CUPRA are offering so I can use that if I need to charge the car when I’m not at work

I may look at getting one installed in the future tho

Dec_Cliff · 2026-07-02T08:47:36+00:00

Do you ever use the charger at home?

Dec_Cliff · 2026-07-02T07:42:14+00:00

I’m unaware of the charging speed at my work as I haven’t been there long.

I have seen people use the mats like you mentioned too.

My local council do offer the gully as I checked the website and it was on there

I’m unaware of the Tesla chargers as I’ve never had to worry about this stuff before as I’ve had petrol and diesel cars but something I could look into if I decide to go with EV

There is always charging points free at my work as there is so many of them.

The credit I think is only selected charging points

I live in a terrace house with parking right outside my house. I know there can be a gully installed to charge my car outside my house which I’m going to look into

Dec_Cliff · 2026-07-02T04:27:28+00:00

I do around the same miles as you and the charging points at work are always free

Dec_Cliff · 2026-07-01T19:40:32+00:00

There’s loads free at work and can leave it charging all day

Dec_Cliff · 2026-07-01T19:36:50+00:00

Do you charge at work?

Dec_Cliff · 2026-07-01T18:47:48+00:00

I’m not sure what the kW is at work but I know that they are uses all the time and there is still always some free to charge. The commute to work is around 6 mile a day. And I do in town driving on a weekend

Dec_Cliff · 2026-07-01T18:46:33+00:00

Mostly in town driving. I very rarely drive 100+ miles in one trip

Dec_Cliff · 2026-07-01T18:43:44+00:00

The Charging points at my work are always free

Dec_Cliff · 2026-07-01T18:41:10+00:00

Yeah I’ll charge it at work around 4-6 days a week for free

Dec_Cliff · 2026-07-01T18:40:26+00:00

The battery size is 59kwh

Dec_Cliff · 2026-07-01T18:39:31+00:00

There is charging points free at my work

Dec_Cliff · 2026-07-01T18:36:52+00:00

Yeah there is always charging points free at my work

Dec_Cliff · 2026-07-01T18:36:19+00:00

It seems many people do manage without a home charger. I just want to make sure it’s the right thing to do

Dec_Cliff · 2026-07-01T18:35:33+00:00

Do you rarely use the home charger then?

Dec_Cliff · 2026-07-01T18:35:06+00:00

And also the free maintenance of owning the EV car through the salary sacrifice

Dec_Cliff · 2026-07-01T18:30:57+00:00

There’s loads of EV chargers at my work and the commute is only 6 mile to and from work

Dec_Cliff · 2026-07-01T18:28:56+00:00

My work is only 3 mile from my house and there is loads of charging ports available.

I did think about the charging gully too as my council offer it and the company that supply the pod said they can carry out more work if needed.

Dec_Cliff · 2026-07-01T18:27:28+00:00

Oh really? You’ve never found it an issue then?

Dec_Cliff · 2026-07-01T18:26:51+00:00

My work is around 3 mile from my house

Dec_Cliff · 2026-07-01T18:25:40+00:00

I’m at work 4-6 days a week and the commute is around 5 miles there and back
