@monty No you are certainly not alone. This forum is not representative of the overall market. Huge enthusiasm for EVs and high adoption levels, yet I think that, in reality, only about 6% of Motability customers have one so far and, as has been widely reported, demand from private customers has slowed down. Manufacturers are therefore having to rely on fleet markets to meet their targets and are probably heavily incentivising them as a result whilst, at the same time, refusing to offer very good deals on ICE cars, even though there remains far more demand for them than there is for EVs.
I’m sure that there are a lot of Motability customers who rarely, if ever, do long journeys and can charge at home. For those folk, Motability is a great route to running an EV, especially with the home charger installation being paid for. However, for those people not yet ready to make the change and / or don’t have the provision to charge at home, which is most likely to be a far greater proportion of the Motability customer base, the choice is pretty dire.
