@mitch At the risk of repeating myself, even if someone ‘builds a bunch of chargers’ nearby, if you have to rely solely on public charging, even a full EV will likely cost you far more to run than your current self charging hybrid car. EVs and PHEVs will only save you money if you can charge at home at domestic rates. Public chargers can work out far more costly than doing the same miles on petrol, so you would have all the hassle and wasted time of charging and be paying more than you are now for the privilege!
