Making the switch to an electric or plug-in hybrid vehicle is exciting — lower running costs, smoother drives, and a step towards a cleaner future. But one of the biggest questions new EV owners ask is: “How will I charge my car at home?”

At County Garage, we’re here to make it simple. When you purchase your electric or hybrid vehicle with us, we can help arrange the installation of a dedicated EV wall box charger at your home — and in many cases, funding support is available.

While you can technically charge an EV using a standard 3-pin plug, it’s far from ideal. A dedicated wall box gives you:

• Faster charging – Up to 3x quicker than a regular plug.
• Access lower electricity charges - We can help advise on utility costs which reduce EV usuage to just 2p per mile
• Safety built-in – Designed to handle the demands of EV charging.
• Convenience – Plug in overnight and wake up to a full battery.
• Smart features – Many units allow you to schedule charging at off-peak rates for lower costs.

It’s the easiest way to make owning an EV feel completely hassle-free.

Good news: grants and funding are available in certain situations to help reduce the cost of installing a wall box.

Through schemes like the OZEV (Office for Zero Emission Vehicles) grant, eligible drivers can receive a contribution towards installation. This makes getting set up at home even more affordable.

Our team will guide you through the process and connect you with trusted installation partners to make sure everything is handled quickly, safely, and to the highest standards.

When you buy your EV or plug-in hybrid with us, we don’t just hand over the keys — we help you every step of the way.
