@anne_twain @jhaue My offer to answer questions was more along the lines of:
1. Do I need to install an expensive level 2 charging station at home? Probably not.
2. Do I need an (expensive) EV with 600km range? Probably not.
3. After a decade, how much has your battery degraded? About 5% as far as I can tell. New battery chemistry is even better. Your battery will outlast your EV.
4. What is your cost-to-own vs a petrol car. About 20% of the cost of ownership of a petrol car, roughly. I still have the factory brake pads installed from 2015.
Stuff like that.
I am always shocked at the slow uptake in EVs in Victoria when I'm back there. I can only hope an influx of cheap EVs from China changes this situation.
