EV charging analysis

The cold climate in Leeds reduces battery range by an estimated 20-30% in winter, meaning a vehicle with a nominal 250-mile range may only achieve around 175 miles on a cold day, which still covers most urban trips but could limit longer journeys without en-route charging. As EV adoption in Leeds is currently negligible, the existing infrastructure likely meets demand, but future growth will require additional stations to avoid congestion.
