The electric car market has been growing considerably over the past few years. As of the start of 2024, the number of electric cars on UK roads has increased to 1.2 million!

This is an incredible level of growth and is an indication of how our roads will look very different in the not too distant future.

The benefits of electric cars, such as the Audi E-Tron and the BMW i3, are very appealing to future-focused motorists who know that these may very well be our main method of transport in a few short years.

The low running costs and minimal maintenance required, combined with the environmental benefits have made the EV a serious consideration to a much broader market for the first time.

However, much like anything that is popular, thieves are never far behind.

Many car insurance companies are anticipating a rise in the level of theft, as more models become available and are in wider distribution.

Therefore, as an EV owner, your insurance company may have already requested that you have a Thatcham categorised car tracker installed on your vehicle.

No matter which electric vehicle that you have, Trackershop will have a suitable tracking device, and install it within 1-3 working days nationwide.
