We're RAC official energy and electric vehicle charging partner

RAC Future Car Challenge is the world’s leading low-energy driving challenge which requires entrants to drive a 60-mile route from Brighton to London using the least amount of energy possible.

The event, which is run by the Royal Automobile Club took place on Saturday 5 November 2011, and was open to electric, hybrid, hydrogen and low-emission internal combustion engine cars and light-commercial vehicles.

In addition to providing charge for vehicles taking part in the challenge, British Gas entered two electric cars driven by two of the UKs biggest electric car evangelists: Smooth FM’s Mark Goodier and TV presenter and comedian, Robert Llewellyn, best known for playing Kryten in Red Dwarf.
