Episode 180: Liz Allan and Lulu O' Hagan - Making EVs Simple Through Community, Confidence and Real Experience.

Liz Allan is joined by Lulu O'Hagan, founder of EVs Made Easy and the Ham EV Group in London, for an open and engaging conversation about what it really takes to help people feel confident about switching to electric vehicles.

Lulu shares her fascinating journey from film and TV production into EV advocacy, driven by lived experience rather than industry jargon. She talks candidly about becoming one of the first EV drivers in her local area, navigating charging without a driveway, and why community support has been essential in helping more people make the transition.

The conversation explores the most persistent myths about electric vehicles, from batteries and range to charging costs, and why real-world experience often outweighs technical explanations. Liz and Lulu also discuss the role of collaboration in improving the EV driver experience, particularly for those living in flats or urban areas, and how small, local actions can have a meaningful impact.

Alongside her EV work, Lulu brings insight from the film and television industry, noting that sustainability is increasingly influencing production decisions, including the use of electric vehicles on set and the growing importance of the Green Rider.

This episode is an honest look at how making EVs simpler, more social and accessible can help build confidence, trust and momentum in the journey towards net zero.
