Best Electric Car to Drive to Every Premier League Ground in England
Could You Visit Every Premier League Ground in an Electric Car?
If you’re a football fan and love a road trip, there’s no better challenge than visiting every Premier League stadium in England in one journey.
But here’s the modern twist… Can you do it in an electric car?
The short answer is yes and it’s easier than you think.
With improved battery range, ultra-rapid charging and a growing UK charging network, an EV is now one of the smartest ways to complete the ultimate football tour.
The Best Electric Car for the Job
Tesla Model 3 Long Range AWD
If you’re planning to lease one car for this journey, the Tesla Model 3 Long Range AWD stands out as the best all-round choice.
Why it works:
Up to ~340 miles real-world range
Fast charging (10–80% in ~30 minutes)
Access to Tesla Supercharger network
Excellent motorway efficiency
Comfortable for long-distance driving
For a trip covering 1,500+ miles across England, reliability and charging convenience matter more than headline specs and this is where Tesla excels.

Where to Charge on the Journey
You don’t need to overcomplicate charging. With the right EV, you’ll only need strategic top-ups every 2.5–4 hours.
Key Charging Strategy:
1. Start Fully Charged (London)
Begin with a full battery from home, work or a hotel charger. We always advise to have a home charger.
2. South Coast Stop (Winchester Area)
Ideal after London + Brighton + Bournemouth stretch
Ultra-rapid charging hub
Perfect first long-distance top-up
3. Midlands Hub (Birmingham / NEC)
Recharge before heading north
One of the UK’s largest charging hubs
Easy motorway access
4. North West Stop (M6 – Keele Services)
Reliable motorway rapid chargers
Ideal between Midlands and Manchester/Liverpool
5. Yorkshire Stop (Leeds Area)
Good position before heading to the North East
6. Optional Top-Up (Sunderland/Newcastle)
Local chargers if needed before heading south again, there is a huge tesla charging station at Washington services on the A1 so time for a Greggs too!
Pro Tip: Most modern EVs (especially Tesla) plan charging automatically, so the car tells you exactly where to stop.
How Long Would the Trip Take?
Driving time: ~25–30 hours total
Realistic trip: 4–6 days
Charging time added: ~3–5 hours total across the journey
This makes it a perfect:
Long weekend challenge
Football-focused road trip
Content idea for social or YouTube
Why Lease an Electric Car for This?
Leasing is one of the easiest ways to get into an EV — especially for a trip like this.
Benefits of leasing:
Lower upfront costs vs buying
Access to the latest EV tech

Potential tax benefits for business users
Fixed monthly budgeting
For business users, EVs also offer:
Low Benefit-in-Kind (BiK) tax

Alternative EV Options
If the Model 3 isn’t for you, consider:
BMW iX3 – premium feel and strong range - Lots of options
Kia EV6 / EV3 – great value and practicality - Great value Electric Kia
Hyundai Ioniq 6 – fast charging and comfort
But for this specific challenge, charging network + efficiency = Tesla wins.
Final Verdict
Visiting every Premier League ground in England used to be a fuel-heavy challenge.
Now? It’s a perfect EV road trip.
With the right car, a smart route and a handful of charging stops, you can complete the journey comfortably while saving on running costs and reducing emissions.
Be careful though as come June there will be 3 new stadium to visit!
