The only way an EV would work for me at the moment would be a (relatively) cheap one as an additional/3rd car as a town runabout. There are cars getting close to matching my general needs now but they are all either:
- Very expensive
- Expensive and fairly boring
Even the expensive ones are touch and go for range for me - and the best ones have maybe half the range of my petrol car (if they're driven slowly and in their most economical mode and in ideal weather conditions) and the best ones are perhaps 1/4 of the range of our diesel car.
I'm interesting in moving to EV at some point but have done the sums and it's still be a really expensive (and relatively impractical) option for me compared to sticking with a petrol car.
