I watch a lot of Lee’s (MacMaster) videos on YouTube, including his latest challenge with Geoff, but have not been put off going electric.
We mostly do short round town journeys and can charge at home. However 4-5 times a year we do a long run to Cornwall or Dorset, stopping at the same M5 service stations Lee stopped at. The big difference, even with a petrol car, is we always travel early morning or late at night when the roads are quiet.
I’ve been watching the EV chargers at Cullompton and others for the last year and they are never full at the times we go. September just gone, 6am Cullompton, none of the chargers were being used. Also, look at the situation at Gloucester, 4/5 chargers all being used but Lee showed the building work for the 10 chargers that were coming online later this year. Plus, we plan to come of the M5 at Cribbs Causeway where there are dozens of chargers within a square mile.
I would urge people to watch the challenge, you do get an insight into owning an EV, but remember Lee travelled on the M6 late morning and M5 mid / late afternoon.
