Well I never. Haven't we said so for years? Ministers are catching on at last, bless 'em.

    Sparkingchip:

    Are electric cars actually being bought as second cars by people who have shared access to a petrol or diesel car for quick getaways and long trips?

    To some extent, yes


    I've been looking at an all electric VW lease deal - and the deal would also give me up to a certain amount of miles or days in a larger, non electric or hybrid vehicle. So basically, I use my all electric day to day, and then drop it off and pick up a bigger hybrid for those longer journeys  - family holiday perhaps


    It's actually quite a good deal if I buy into it via a French VW dealership (Brexit notwithstanding)
