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

Not even possible, they have so many downsides.

So you reduce or eliminate the downsides that's the point isn't it.
Such things as less tax, cheap charging, no congestion charge.


The problem is their ****ty range, and the cost of replacing the battery.


But they are cheap at about £11k for one with AC/BT, sat nav, etc.


And another 4K every 5 years for a battery. Nevermind the cost of the car, you pay £4K every 5 years in "fuel" replacing the batteries, before you even buy the electricity.
