Because they get significantly better mpg and it ends up
cheaper to run and the engine is a lot more reliable too.


Right so all you have to do is find ways to make peolpe want electric cars


Not even possible, they have so many downsides.


It's quite possible because its happened electric cars are getting sold.
you'd have to be really stupid not to know that oh well yeah...




and I don;t think teh govenemtn puttiung a huge tax
on them to replace teh tax they lose on pertol will work.


Corse it would work.


How ?
How does charging £1 for 1 ampere hour of electric encourage people to buy electric cars ?
if it costs less to drive X distance using petrol or desiel peolpe will buy pertol or desiel cars like they have been doing since the car was invented..



Whether it makes sense
to do that is an entirely different issue.
