But what would be a rough estimate for the true cost of a charge (i.e.
when done at home)?
For a "true" cost (i.e. one that you could compare to a conventional
car) you would need to take into account the tax levied on petrol and
diesel but not on electricity.
Hardly. Unless you had a supply of tax free petrol, etc.
No. The point is that if this took off in a big way (and I hope it does)
the government would have to tax electricity used to charge cars to
maintain its revenue. I don't know how this would work but I'm certain
that it would happen.
