Also remember that for much of the year in the UK a car will need
cabin heating. This comes for 'free' on an IC engined car - but not
on an electric one.


Renault, etc have developed insulated bodies.


Gosh, and double-glazing, too? Do tell, drivel, we are keen to know.


Of couse. I thought you would be shocked. Insulated bodies in sleeper cab
trucks have been around for quite a while. Going to sleep when it is -10C
outside, the cab has to be insulated.

Insulated bodies for EV cars has been in R&Dd for quite a time now.
