The Electric Vehicle Association (EVA) England is a non-profit member association representing current and prospective EV drivers across England, and advocating on their behalf to the government, media and industry.

Founded in 2020 by a group of passionate EV drivers, we were inspired by the benefits of electric driving and the urgent need to reduce air pollution and tackle climate change.

We’re here to give a voice to EV drivers. We push for government policies and industry changes which accelerate the transition to electric vehicles and work towards a transport system that’s cleaner, fairer, and fit for the future.

Our members are at the heart of everything we do.

Whether you’re already driving electric or considering making the switch, your experiences and insights help shape our priorities and actions. We believe that we are stronger with a unified voice and that together, we can be the voice of EV drivers in England.

We use consultations, surveys, and workshops to understand what matters most to the EV community. This helps us identify key issues and barriers relating to EV adoption, raise awareness of these challenges and advocate for practical solutions with government, industry, and other key stakeholders.

Since we started, we have responded to a Government Consultation on ending the sale of new petrol and diesel cars and vans, advocated for a 2030 Phase Out Date to the government and media, presented to the EV Energy Taskforce, and supported the Public Charge Point Regulations 2023.

More recently, we launched Putting the Driver First, our white paper setting out what government and industry must change to make the EV transition work for every driver – not just those with driveways or on higher incomes. It is directly shaped by discussions with members, through our surveys and workshops, conversations at events, and pleas for help by drivers. It sets out three clear asks of government: generate widespread access to and trust in EVs; deliver a plan for households without private charging, alongside proper consumer protection for everyone who charges at home or on the public network; and delay the proposed pay-per-mile scheme (eVED) until at least 2030, making sure it works for drivers from day one.

Every driver who joins makes our voice stronger.

As the leading independent voice for EV drivers in England, we’re funded entirely by our members, not government, not industry. That independence is what lets us tell government, industry and media the truth about what drivers actually need, even when it’s inconvenient.

Whether you own, lease or drive a company EV, or are looking to make the switch, if you want to do more than watch from the sidelines, signing up for EVA England is how you make a difference.

For just £20 a year, you get:

  • A direct say in shaping the EV policies and campaigns we push for
  • A seat at our surveys, consultations and workshops, so your experience feeds straight into our work.
  • Access to exclusive member events and offers.

 

Your membership directly funds our research, campaigning and lobbying work, and it’s what keeps us independent enough to keep doing it.
