A somewhat off-the-cuff playlist while driving your electric vehicle
What better way to enjoy the sounds of the ultimate summer playlist than in the quiet of an electric car?
To celebrate the rise of the electric vehicle, motoring experts at LeaseElectricCar.co.uk have created an electrically themed playlist for motorists to listen along to while they drive.
Whether heading out on the school run or on a road trip with the top down, electric vehicle owners will now be able to enjoy the experience of listening to a playlist created especially for them.
The playlist caters to a wide range of genres and tastes spanning 40 years of highly charged music, from the 1977 Electric Light Orchestra hit “Mr Blue Sky” to the 2018 millennial crowd pleaser “Electricity” by Silk City with Dua Lipa.
A spokesperson of LeaseElectricCar.co.uk said, “There have always been songs celebrating cars and driving, from The Rolling Stones’ ‘Route 66’ to ‘Shut up and Drive’ by Rihanna, but never anything celebrating driving electric cars, and we wanted to change that.
“There are approaching half a million electric cars on UK roads today, and we thought now was the right time to celebrate that fact with a playlist created just for them.
“When it comes to creating the perfect electricity themed playlist, it’s important to select songs that appeal to the whole family. Our playlist has something for everyone from fans of electro pop to lovers of heavy metal. Whether you are in the mood for the steamily electrifying ‘Danger! High Voltage’, a high-energy pop song like ‘Electricity’, or just want to unwind to the reggae sounds of Eddy Grant, this playlist will flick your switch.
“Of course, everyone might not agree with our top 10 playlist, but what we can guarantee is that it will bring a little spark back into your life when you listen to it.”
