    As Fuel Duty currently raises about £28 billion a year for the Government I can’t see ‘cheap’ electric lasting much longer.  One way or another the Government will want that money back.  By 2025-ish I imagine private and public Recharging Points will be metered and the cost of fully recharging an EV will be commensurate with the cost of filling the fuel tank of an ICE vehicle.
