Hawke Editorial Team
Guides & buyer's advice, Hawke Electric Vehicles
The Hawke Editorial Team writes the guides and buyer's advice on this site. We work with private owners, estates, resorts, golf clubs, grounds teams and event organisers across the UK and worldwide, and we write from how the vehicles are actually specified, used and supported: what really drives the price, which battery suits which use, where buggies can and cannot be driven, and how to keep a fleet running. Where a figure is not yet confirmed, we say so rather than guessing.
