I had a pushed ad on Facebook yesterday telling me how much I could save per week by switching to the advertised EV. Something in the range of £45 per week.
Trouble is the base model of the car it was advertising was £50k. Excellent, I can make my money back in only 21 years...
More realistically, a Nissan Leaf is only twice as much as my wife's Hybrid, so I can probably bring that down to about 14 years, or slightly longer than the batteries are predicted to last.
A lot has to be done before even the above average man in the street can manage the switch. For the rest, you're effectively saying at the moment that you'll need a fairly decent income if you want to travel anywhere.
