Hello and welcome back to The Fast Charge, a weekly British EV newsletter.

Today’s edition is much shorter than usual, though still packs a punch. Within it, you will find… new statistics from DfT, fleets wanting faster charging, and Tesla owners trying to run over their children.

As ever, if you have any thoughts or feedback, please simply reply to this email.
