Overview:

Electric Vehicles are a key part of our tomorrow and how we get there. If we can get all the fossil fuel vehicles off our roads, out of our seas and out of our skies, we'll have a much better environment. This community is where we discuss the various different vehicles and news stories regarding electric transportation.

UK has a law (or similar) that you have to be able to pay with contactless on new charger or older ones above 50kw

Infuriatingly, that law only applies to charger 8kW and up. A lot of chargers, especially smaller destination chargers, are 7.5kW.
