We drove #electriccar to Paris recently and back, via Dieppe - no worries.
Last December I drove to Berlin and back. Again, each drive took about 10 hours with couple of stops - no problems.
Stop believing nonsense in the media. It's a moaning of either corrupt people or let's just say - less gifted in the upstairs apartment - who think their privilidges is just a norm. #climate #ElectricVehicles #climateaction
My personal experience with EVs involves being stranded in the middle of nowhere as charge ran out way, way before we got to the range we were supposed to get, without a charging station anywhere nearby.
And the roadside assistance that was supposed to arrive in 90 minutes took five hours to actually show up.
I'm glad you had problem free experiences, but there are definitely a lot of people out there who personally experienced huge problems.
Absolutely.
So there are downsides to all such mechanical contraptions, and we shouldn't pretend any are perfect, suggesting that it's merely nonsense in the media.
Although the simplicity of fuel over battery storage does turn up here with simpler measurement of remaining range and ease of emergency refueling.
But yep, no perfect option, just imperfect options each each with tradeoffs.
