Electric Brighton Car Club
An electric car club for Brighton & Hove
Brighton's first Electric Car Club is coming!
We've been working hard with Co Cars to get Brighton's first Electric Car Club up and running, and we're currently working towards launching our pilot project in the spring of 2023.
To stay up to date with our plans, sign-up for our mailing list via the survey at the bottom of this page.
Pay for the hours you drive, not the time you don’t
Did you know the average car spends over 95% of its lifetime parked up and going nowhere?* In fact, many people only need to use one for a few hours or a day here and there.
That’s why we want to start a community-led electric car club for Brighton & Hove. Members could book electric cars located across the city from as little as half an hour; sparing them the time, money and hassle associated with car ownership.
Driving that doesn’t cost the earth
An electric car club could also help tackle our city’s congestion, parking and pollution problems by removing underused vehicles and replacing them with cleaner, greener shared electric cars.
Additionally, car clubs have been shown to increase levels of walking, cycling and public transport use as people can easily weigh up the financial and environmental cost of using a car compared to other forms of transport.
