ECIU Says EVs Save £1,350 a Year… Their Example Costs £1,668 MORE — They’re £3,000 Wrong! #ElectricCars #EVTruth #carfinanceuk I’ve been using the Hilo blood pressure monitor for years — and it has genuinely helped me control and lower my blood pressure. Now it’s had a major upgrade. It doesn’t just monitor blood pressure 24/7… It now tracks: ✔ Sleep ✔ Steps ✔ Activity All inside the same bracelet. For me, the biggest advantage has always been: • Continuous blood pressure monitoring • No “white coat syndrome” readings • Real-world data instead of snapshot readings And now having sleep and step tracking built into the same app just makes it even more useful. If you’re interested, here’s my referral link (20% discount for you): 👉 https://mention-me.com/m/ol/ev6uq-barrie-crampton I receive a £25 voucher for a successful referral. There is a monthly subscription, so check the pricing before you commit. As always — this isn’t medical advice. Just my honest experience. The ECIU claims you can save up to £1,350 a year by switching to an EV. Sounds great… until you actually run the numbers. In this video, I take THEIR OWN example — the Skoda Enyaq vs Skoda Kodiaq — and break it down properly. And what do we find? Not only does the EV NOT save money… It actually costs £1,668 MORE per year. Which means the ECIU aren’t just a bit off… They’re over £3,000 a year wrong. And thats only charging for Petrol Usage at todays price and pretending that ELECTRIC is FREE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So how did they get it so wrong? Are these comparisons even fair? And why do these “EV savings” claims keep falling apart under scrutiny? Let’s go through it step by step. https://www.independent.co.uk/cars/electric-vehicles/ev-leasing-cheaper-vs-petrol-lease-b2949659.html?utm_source=chatgpt.com here is my affiliate link to Octopus Energy and if you use it to sign up, we both get £50 https://share.octopus.energy/grey-mule-679 And also here is my link to the Octopus Ev Affiliate Partner Program https://octopus.typeform.com/to/gzs2aBUw#partner=Barrie%20Crampton&orgid=4803 Thanks for watching, please Like, Subscribe and Ring the Bell to be notified of all our future video releases Please watch: our Review and Virtual Video Test Drive Playlist https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL1A82282B2DE5BE88 Thanks for watching, please Like, Subscribe and Ring the Bell to be notified of all our future video releases Please note that I am an Amazon Affiliate and an Ambassador for some of the products we test, if you buy any products using my links it won't cost you anymore but I will get a small commission this is the list of all the products I have used so far, to clean and accessorise my Citroen Ami Vibe https://www.amazon.co.uk/hz/wishlist/ls/3KN82D0R4GO7H?ref_=wl_share My Facebook group for my Citroen Ami Channel https://www.facebook.com/groups/3339999346221783 Please note that if you do buy something using one of the links on our website it won’t cost you anymore but we will receive a small commission
