  • I wouldn't be so pessimistic. My answer would be 'Wait and see - it hasn't been tried yet and it is too early to dismiss it completely'..

    My prediction is that electric vehicles will continue to suffer from the impracticalities which they already do.

    Namely, short range, lack of charging infrastructure and the fact that people don't want to hang around for hours whilst they 'charge up' or recharge their batteries.

    Then of course, you have the problem with the safe disposal of spent lithium and all of the other nasty heavy metals employed in the construction of the batteries.

    Electric vehicles may plug a short-term gap but they won't be the future.

    That is of course, if you believe in Greta's philosophy in the 1st place.

    Me? I'm sticking to my trusty diesel and they can all go hang..

    No way do I have the requisite £30+K to spent on an electric van.

    I'm 60 and retirement is not far off.

    After that, I'm happy to hang up my vehicle keys for good.
