We’ve got 21 years as things stand in the UK before a zero emissions car is the only choice to buy new. And even then, hybrids could still be allowed. So until then we can all make a decision based on our own preferences and needs. Some of us will likely no longer be driving in 2040 anyway! Zero emissions is about more than just electric cars, but at the moment they’re the only viable choice, unless you can afford a hydrogen fuel cell vehicle, and have access to a service station that sells it. Last time I checked there were less than a handful in the whole of the UK. Not easy to store........ I’m sure by 2040 a lot of the current tech will be redundant, but a start has to be made somewhere. Whether you want to be an early adopter or wait 21 years is down to personal choice.

That story about car parks full of Model 3s came out last July. And the consensus in the US press was as already mentioned, but obviously some came to other conclusions. Tesla is a company that some love to hate. Then in October the Daily Mail ran the story here as fresh news..... Donald would probably call it ‘fake’ news, if it was about him.
