At present there is a disparity between the cost of Electric and ice cars in purchase price, but that is more than offset by the savings on running and servicing costs. Factor in the cost of polution, the detrimental health effects as well as climate degradation and I believe the advantages far outweigh the disadvantages. No doubt the charging infrastructure badly needs addressing even with the option of home charging, but that is improving.
We none of us like change. It takes us out of our comfort zone but we owe it to future generations to make the change from ice to ev. We can all do our bit by putting pressure on Motability to give us a adequate choice of ev’s.
