Would like to switch to electric power sooner rather than later. Not worried about cost saving (do very low mileage). Saving planet is nice, but I wonder how much EVs actually do this with their power coming in-part from fossil-fuel generation and the complex chemistry involved with batteries. I don’t know enough about the science to say yay or nay.
I like EVs because the whole system is better science and engineering than ICEs and better suited to popular transport vehicles. Far fewer moving parts, instant power delivery and more adaptable; 4×4 EVs, for example, need only one or two extra motors, not a great big, wasteful collection of shafts, joints, differentials and heaven knows what else.
Moreover, as one who enjoys driving, I am pleased to hear (not least from folks on this forum) that EVs are satisfying to drive. I will avoid saying “fun”-to-drive as this might get a number of EVs censored from scheme!
