Backagain has a lot of promise if they can keep it on the circuit!
The low end of the commuter market is a bit expensive up front but the running costs are just about zero compared to an IC car, no clutch jobs, no brake rebuilds, no servicing costs such as oil changes etc.[/QUOTE]

Just a fresh set of batteries roughly after 6-8 years costing as much as half the original purchase price plus cost of disposing of the old batteries (we have to pay to dispose of old tyres already). Imagine the resale value of a 5 year old electric car, you'd have to pay someone to take it away and dispose of it.
