Renault are starting to really push their Zoe electric car. It's an
amusing price, but massively subsidised by European governments (ie
by you, me and every other taxpayer).

Renault advertise it as 130 mile range but in the small print is
detail that the real world range is closer to 60 miles. But the
interesting detail is that you have to rent the battery. That will
cost the driver £80 a month for 7500 miles a year.

So that's 13p/mile just for the battery. And my wife's boring old
petrol car costs.... 13p/mile in petrol.


So the battery charging costs are on top?
