Electric vehicle charging points “need to be more accessible” for the one in five people with disabilities, the AA president has said. His words come after a survey of more than 17,000 people revealed eight in 10 respondents said charge points should be designed with the needs of disabled people in mind.
In the study, which took place in 2021, 73 percent of respondents said charge point spaces should be wheelchair friendly. And 79 percent said charging points themselves should be designed with consideration for the needs of users with limited mobility or physical disabilities.
