    I pay about 20 cents a Kwh, and my EV costs about four bucks to go 100km. That’s about a quarter of my old gasser.

      I guess me lugging around a heavy ICE cuts into my efficiency, but at least I don’t have to worry about charging infrastructure on longer roadtrips. Which, from what I can tell so far is still pretty shit here in the UK.

        It’s still pretty shit everywhere. We’re still in the early adopter phase. If you think about it, electric cars really became mainstream with the Tesla Model S in 2012. If you put that in ICE adoption terms, we’re not at the model T days yet.

        As an interesting side note, cars overall are becoming less mainstream. They’re getting more and more unaffordable and gen Z aren’t rushing out to get their licenses. That should make for a very weird adoption curve.
