I have an EV on order even though I don’t have a home charger. My choice was easy because I only drive short distances which results in a very low mileage. I’m happy to charge once every three weeks or so at a local charger as I will have a really comfortable seat and good music in the car and all the time in the world to recline and enjoy, lol. Price isn’t a factor for me due to low mileage. You need to make your choice based on your individual needs and usage. Also be aware that using an EV fast charger regularly is almost definitely more expensive than having a self charging petrol hybrid, and even straight petrol engines are becoming more economical
@POPS Assuming that your EV is supplied through Motability, presumably you will qualify for a free home charger installation? If so, I’d strongly advise getting one. My nephew applied the same logic as you when he ordered his EV and now deeply regrets it (his wasn’t a Motability car).
As you say, fast chargers are extremely expensive (whilst still taking considerably longer than filling up with petrol) and fuel economy of petrol engines has come on leaps and bounds in recent years. I remember back in the 80s and 90s when around 30mpg was around the norm for a decent sized 2WD petrol saloon or hatchback, yet I’ve recently handed back a 2.0i 4WD SUV that averaged just over 42mpg over the 3 years I had it!
