The Electric Car Guide - 2015 Edition - is the definitive guide to owning and using an electric car. Written by author Michael Boxwell, who has been using electric cars for the past eight years, the book explains both the benefits and drawbacks of electric car ownership, explores the environmental benefits and demonstrates the true cost savings associated with driving an electric car.

The book discusses electric car range, charging infrastructure and goes into detail about the claimed environmental benefit, looking at the sources of the electricity we use and analysing the environmental impact of electric cars, from digging coal out of the ground, manufacturing the batteries, building the cars and recycling them at the end of their life.

The book provides a comprehensive list of electric cars available today, and includes the experiences of other owners who have already taken the step and bought their own electric cars.

If you are interested in owning an electric car and want to know more about them, this is the book to read.

By the time you have finished reading the book, you will understand what it is like to own, use and live with an electric car. You will understand the arguments both for and against electric car use and you will know whether or not an electric car is suitable for you.
