to a degree its down to individual driving numbers i do low mileage over a lease and few long distance journies so an electric wouldnt have range issues for me. my issue is the ap and getting in and out easily.
at the time i was looking only the bmw i3 was suitable, had i needed space for a wheelchair/scooter even that would fail. i can get and have done a petrol car with no outlay but the cheapest i3 has an ap for wpms of £685. at best if i could find a deal i have seen a £500 contribution from marshalls and their 24 hr zero ap deal.
so at the moment petrol wins out as ordinarily i can get an auto grant from veterans towards the ap and the gcb usually i can go to £1300 for an ap and not be out of pocket but this time as ive finished the current lease early i wont get the grant so the ev loses out.
