There’s no better way to explore one of the UK’s most scenic regions than with the comfort, style, and sustainability of an electric vehicle. Electric car rental in Yorkshire is fast becoming the travel choice of environmentally conscious adventurers, and for good reason. From the wild beauty of the Yorkshire Dales to the charm of coastal Whitby, the region is perfectly suited to a road trip in a state-of-the-art EV. And with EVision Electric Vehicles operating in Yorkshire, accessing premium electric cars for hire has never been easier.

Why Choose Electric Car Rental in Yorkshire?

Hiring an electric vehicle not only reduces your carbon footprint, but also enhances your journey. There is smooth acceleration, quiet cabins, and the latest in-car technology. Yorkshire, with its rich variety of landscapes, quaint towns, and modern charging infrastructure, is ideal for EV travel. Whether you’re looking to cruise through vibrant cities like Leeds and York or wind your way through countryside roads, an EV provides a stress-free, cost-effective, and guilt-free travel experience.

EVision Electric Vehicles offers a superb selection of electric cars perfect for every kind of traveller. Take the BMW i4, a stylish and sporty saloon that’s ideal for gliding through the cobbled streets of York or enjoying a luxurious drive across the North York Moors. For families or groups, the Volkswagen ID.Buzz brings retro design with futuristic function. Ideal for beach days on the Yorkshire coast or a weekend festival in the Dales.

If rugged adventure is your thing, the Rivian R1T is a dream come true. This electric pickup truck is built for versatility and can handle country lanes, hill climbs, and camping trips with ease. It’s the perfect companion for a getaway to Malham Cove or a journey through the Yorkshire Three Peaks. Meanwhile, the Mercedes EQA provides a premium compact SUV experience, offering elegance and efficiency as you tour historic market towns like Helmsley or Ripon.

Budget-conscious travellers need not compromise either. The MG4 is an affordable, fun-to-drive hatchback with a surprising amount of range, perfect for shorter breaks or zipping between cities like Sheffield and Harrogate.

What to See and Do with Your Electric Car in Yorkshire

Start your trip in Leeds, where you can enjoy urban attractions such as the Royal Armouries Museum and a buzzing food scene. With charging stations conveniently located in city car parks and at shopping centres, it’s easy to top up your EV while you enjoy the sights.

Next, head out to the Yorkshire Dales National Park. This is a haven of rolling hills, stone villages, and scenic walks. Park up and hike around Aysgarth Falls or Bolton Abbey, returning to the comfort of your electric car for the drive to your next destination. EVision’s electric vehicles offer excellent range, and with an expanding network of rapid chargers across the Dales and beyond, your route planning is simple and stress-free.

Continue your journey to the Yorkshire Coast. Explore the picturesque harbour at Robin Hood’s Bay or sample fish and chips in Whitby. This is home of the Dracula legend and also stunning cliff-top views. The coast has embraced green travel, with many towns offering EV charging at hotels, car parks, and tourist spots.

Don’t miss the North York Moors National Park, an ideal setting for an EV drive, with heather-strewn hills, ancient woodlands, and wide open roads. The silence of an electric car means you can enjoy the natural beauty of the area without disrupting the peace.
