Then you have to take into account the resale value if it nears the 100k miles zone for the hybrid battery.
That shits expensive to replace. Who the hell wants to buy a 2nd hand car and then have to drop over 10k on a battery?

Range for me. I regularly travel to gaa matches on the other side of the country and back in one day. That would be a dose to plan with an electric car. Range is getting better but it’s not there yet

The usual gulf between what non-owners think, & what owners know.

If manufacturers cared about environment that much, they would have reduced the price of EV to be below ICE.
But if course capitalism baby.

Especially after Eowyn I don’t fancy taking my chances with a vehicle I have to plug in to drive

Thought about buying one lately. When I looked at chargers it seems they’ve added almost none in the last 2-3 years. Second hand prices collapsed also. It’s a risky move.

Tbh, environmental concerns would put me off buying one. Believe it or not, but there’s very little of an old ICE car which can’t be recycled at the end of its life.
Those big lithium batteries electric cars use, you know where they go when they’re spent? A big hole in the ground.

And resale value I’d say
Charging infrastructure is a big one also
