Running out of charge is the last great worry of electric cars, we are no longer worried about being electrocuted driving through standing water or the batteries suddenly catching fire. In the same way as running out of fuel in a ICE car, it only happens due to driver error. I’ve done it a couple of times pushing it too far knowing that i could just get a can from the garage after a bit of a walk or calling for roadside assistance. As it is more terminal (excuse the pun) in an EV, I am certain that I would never let it happen due to my error.
This is a good piece, excuse the website.
