    You are pretty guilty of that, it has to be said. We understand you don't like EV's and have some obscure use cases to prove it.

    OP there should be a glut of PCP and lease cars coming on the market towards the end of the year (repos) and I think waiting a bit and watching the market like a hawk could well pay dividends.
    Proof?

    Has the op said what their milage is? A EV may not be suitable at all. It wouldnt work for me for sevral reasons. Lets not assume EVs are suitable for everyone.

    That's like saying a Hummer isn't suitable everyone. Duh, obviously.

    You are wrong about the mileage though, with an EV the more you do the more you stand to save. If you are doing say 150 miles a day then you could be thousands a year better off, and save yourself a lot of time by not having to visit petrol stations.
    What, wrong? No. If they are doing alot of miles a day the range of the ev might not be suitable or viable. I have at least one journey next week that means i couldnt have an EV, more so in normal times.

    If you are regularly doing more range than an affordable EV like a Leaf 40 can do then you better be getting paid for it. That commute is brutal.
