As your pricing example points out, EV's are *nearly* there, and the

Not with a ****y 130 mile range they aren't; I get a 600 mile range with
a dizzle C4.



I doubt many people actually need a 600 mile range. Few would drive that
distance without stopping - especially in the UK.


South coast to The North West and back will see a driver getting close to
Six hundred miles. Easy to do in a diesel Mondeo and a fairly typical drive
for an engineer or sales rep. They wouldn't want to have to wait overnight
for a "fill".
