    I would like to see a far better selection of decent sized petrol (and diesel for those that want it) SUVs and estate cars. I find it extremely irritating that the only decent additions to the scheme these days are EVs. Motability are NOT an environmental charity yet seem to behave like one. It’s good to see all the EV additions for those that want one, but this should not be at the expense of choice for those who either do not want an EV, or would find one to be impractical. Sadly, I think I will be disappointed.

    This 1000% ?

    Totally agree and I’ve raised this point recently on the Motability Facebook page. Just got bombarded by die hard EV fans who just kept making justifications for how great EV’s are. Pointed out multiple times that the point I was making was that Motability was putting too much emphasis on EV’s in its articles etc but it didn’t seem to sink in with these people.

    The fact they felt the need to justify their EV so much tells me they know themselves that an EV is more problematic in terms of day to day use than they wish to admit. EV’s have their place for certain situations but for people like me where offroad parking and overnight charging are not an option they are a none starter and Mobility needs to cater to this rather than constantly pushing the dubious ‘green message’
