Electric cars-got to be a viable option now?
I actually think that the charging situation will get worse rather than better over the next few years at least. Whilst they are Installing new charging points all the time, with the number of EVs now being sold every month the ratio of cars to chargers is likely going the wrong way.

Electric cars-got to be a viable option now?
Reading through this thread with interest, however a lot of the figures quoted eg insurance look like telephone numbers in comparison to my current situation - our second car for example is a golf 1.6 Tdi cabriolet which costs me £20 a year in tax, will do 55mpg+ all day long - and insurance is under £400 a year. It’s perfect for our rural location and the local roads, no worries about congestion charge locally at the moment. We have a drive and could fit a charger - my neighbour opposite has just taken delivery of a Mustang Mach E so it’ll be interesting to hear his opinion over the next few months. But it still strikes me as a rich mans game at present - most if not all the financial savings for someone like me doing about 8000 miles a year in each of 2 cars will be gobbled up by increased insurance, the cost of the car and getting the charger fitted etc, and who knows where electricity prices will be this time next year?!?
