Electric car for hire scheme to be launched in London

Electric cars that can be hired by the hour are to be introduced in London.

The project is being funded by a French company, the Bollore Group, who want to boost the number of charging points in London.

About 100 electric vehicles will be available within a year, the project developers said.

BBC London's Nick Beake spoke to Vincent Bollore, from the Bollore Group, and motoring journalist Alistair Weaver
