Move Electric’s best features of 2022: lap records, tuk-tuks… and sausage rolls

The world of electric mobility is growing at an incredible pace, so the team here at Move Electric Towers have been flat-out all year highlighting the people, companies and technology leading the transport revolution.
Given we can barely keep up with what we’ve done, we figured you might have missed some bits too. So we thought we’d take a look back at some of the best features we’ve done this year.
Electric record setting at Brands Hatch
The idea was simple: get Move Electric’s name in the record books by setting a load of electric lap records at Brands Hatch, one of Britain’s most famous racing circuits. We somehow managed to borrow the Kent circuit for an hour, so the big question was how many electric vehicles we could find to set a time.
In the end, we arrived at Brands on a chilly January day with seven – seven! – battery-powered vehicles and seven brave pilots, and in a frantic, chaotic day, every single one of them made it around the 1.2-mile circuit safely. Yes, even Autocar’s Matt Prior, who volunteered to ride the Perry e-scooter, which didn’t take kindly to the circuit’s steep hills.
We made a video about it, too. So watch this to get the full story of how we set new Brands Hatch lap records with a (deep breath…) Tesla Model 3, Lunaz Rolls-Royce Phantom conversion, Citroën e-Despatch, Gocycle G4, Silence S01, Perrys eHopper and an electric skateboard.
Racing across London……
