Taxi-hailing app FREE NOW has announced it will invest €6 million in home chargers in an effort to encourage its Irish drivers to switch to electric vehicles (EVs).
The move comes after a recent survey of the app’s drivers in Ireland which found 68% were unsure about switching to electric vehicles in the next one to three years, with charging availability and price the key paint points for drivers.
