It’s natural to be pessimistic being British and all, but no matter how you try to delve in a carve out a reasoning for yourself, remember, the amount of misinformation out there is rife. Fors and against, Negatives and positives, pros and cons!!!!

No one said a BEV has no carbon footprint, yes it must be produced in a factory as are current ICE cars but the ongoing running of thousands of BEV’s will have a much smaller footprint that ICE cars. The amount of juice needed to charge a ICE car overnight for say 300 miles of travel is way less than what you imagine and is certainly less of a carbon footprint that fossil fuelled cars. It’s on a 13amp plug for starters!!!
Remember fuel has to be drilled for, processed, refined, tankered to your local station and then electrically pumped into your vehicle, a huge footprint before we even get started driving.

I believe we will dislike the idea all the way to getting our first BEV and then opinion will slowly change.

Remember the birth of the railway in the 1800s???
