We're electrifying!

Clean, Green, Electric Machine

A-Class Driving School is going electric!  Environmental pressures are rising and with the state of Bristol's air quality being so shockingly poor, something had to be done.  Driving instructors are on the go all day long, teaching in combustion engine vehicles and the only course of action to not be negatively impacting on all this is to go electric.


From December 6th I'll be teaching in the new Renault Zoe.  A 100% electric vehicle.  With it's power coming from 100% renewable sources and no tail pipe emissions, this has to be the greenest and most guilt free way of learning how to drive.  The Zoe is a multi award winning vehicle, including the What Car? best small electric vehicle for the 7th year running.



Greased Lightnin'



Just like the lyrics, this car is automatic.  Which is good news for all those looking to learn to drive a vehicle without a clutch and gears.  It's bad news for all those who want to learn stick as the waiting times for this type of transmission is going to go up.  We've blogged before about Why now is the time to learn in an automatic, it's definitely more the case now. 


The wait currently for manual is around 6 months, assuming you can even got on a waiting list.  The new automatic tuition vehicle essentially doubles our capacity for the lightnin' fast route on getting your licence and you could be taking driving lessons within weeks.

You are supreme


Even though this car is electric, the way it looks and feels is just like a regular automatic.  Meaning once qualified, you'll be able to slip into any other auto and know how to drive it.  All electric cars have instant torque , which means you’ll always have power right at your fingertips. As soon as you hit the accelerator you’ll get an instant response and surge of speed from the car, making these vehicles ideal for city driving.


Lesson rates are also priced exactly the same at £37 and hour or ten for £350. 


The future of driving is electric, why not get in from the start and learn to drive in one.  Call Will today on 07837796842 to book your electric driving lessons in Bristol.
