This week was international dog day, and as we’re handing back the keys to our Volvo EX30, there’s one final review to share - Dory’s.

Whilst Dory’s rave review is great, it’s also a good opportunity to share some interesting research into dogs and electric vehicles.

Did you know, Dogs prefer EVs? We have a link in our bio where you can find out more.

Never used a public EV charger before? You’re definitely not alone.

For anyone new to electric cars, public charging can feel like another unknown. Which charger do you use? How do you pay? What do you plug in first?

Nicky is relatively new to EVs herself and had never public charged before, so we thought she was the perfect person to show just how straightforward it can be.

We stopped at Gloucester Services, handed her the charging cable and let her give it a go.

This is the first of Nicky’s No-Fuss EV Guides, where we’ll be taking some of those EV unknowns and showing you how they actually work.

First up: How to Public Charge an EV.

If Nicky can do it on her first attempt, so can you!

The Lease Electric team are taking on the Cheltenham Half Marathon - in 45 days!

This September, Richard, Lee, Josh and Chloe will tackle the 13.1-mile challenge, raising vital funds for our 2026 Charity of the Year, 4ED.

Part of the Gloucester Rugby Foundation, the 4Ed Foundation provides practical and financial support to people living with Motor Neurone Disease and their families.

Some of the team have completed half marathons before, while others are yet to run their first 5K, but everyone is committed to training and determined to cross the finish line!

Every donation, no matter the size, will help make a big difference. If you’re able to support us, we would be incredibly grateful: https://www.justgiving.com/team/lease-electric?utm_medium=TE&utm_source=CL

Earlier this month, we were proud to host the county’s largest electric vehicle showcase, bringing together businesses, drivers and many leading vehicle manufacturers for a day dedicated to electric vehicles.

Our Business Breakfast gave guests a practical introduction to EVs, covering everything from Salary Sacrifice and Business Leasing to common EV myths, charging, running costs and our Climate Positive Leasing Service.

We were also delighted to welcome Tosh Crompton from Volvo Cars, who shared insight into Volvo’s history, and an exciting glimpse of soon to be announced Volvo technology that could help shape the next generation of vehicle manufacturing and continue to advance driver and passenger safety.

Outside, visitors had the opportunity to explore 50 electric vehicles from manufacturers including , .uk , , , .uk , , , , , and many more, making Go Electric Gloucestershire our biggest event yet.

A huge thank you to everyone who joined us, exhibited their vehicles and helped make the event such a success.

If you couldn’t make it, here’s a short look back at an incredible day.

Lease Electric recently met with Sir Geoffrey Clifton-Brown , Member of Parliament for The North Cotswolds and Chair of the Public Accounts Committee, to raise concerns about the Government’s proposed 3 pence per mile EV tax from April 2028 (eVED).

While we recognise the need to replace Fuel Duty revenue Lease Electric believe a per-mile charging system risks being complex, costly to implement, and unfair to drivers at a critical stage of EV adoption.

We were joined by colleagues from the British Vehicle Rental and Leasing Association - BVRLA , who shared insight from their research and reinforced the importance of developing any future road pricing solution collaboratively to ensure it is fair and workable.

Lease Electric has proposed an alternative approach that could support revenue generation without introducing a new per-mile charging scheme, using the existing VED (Road Tax) framework, supported by manufacturer data, and based on EV efficiency (Miles/kWh),the EV equivalent of MPG.

Our latest press release outlines this proposal, alongside a copy of our open letter, which following Sir Geoffrey’s agreement, will now be shared with Gloucestershire MPs to provide further information on this alternative.
