The best Christmas markets for electric vehicle drivers have been revealed in a new study conducted by Peugeot UK.
Birmingham’s Frankfurt Christmas Market was found to be the most accessible, offering the best balance of charging options, according to the research.
Using Time Out’s list of best Christmas markets in the UK for ‘magical festive shopping’, Peugeot first compared how many of the markets could be reached using the 251-mile range of the latest Peugeot E-2008 from the UK’s 15 most populated cities.
The study also ranked how many public charging points were within a five-mile radius of the Christmas Market, as well as the charging speeds available, while accommodation options that offered electric car charging were also scored.
