My first EV was a VW e-Golf. Got it in 2019. Now we have three EVs in the family. I got the Polestar 2, the first car to have @Vivaldi available. We also have an Audi e-Tron.

Most of the time we charge at home. It is easiest and most of the time we do not drive far enough to have to charge somewhere else. When we do, there are fast chargers.

The cost of charging is a lot less than using gasoline.

The range of these cars is not as large as many of the newer models, but it does not matter, most of the time.

If you have never tried an EV, maybe next time you should give it a try. IMHO it is a much better experience.

@jon @Vivaldi unfortunately this is not universally true. In Germany, for example, the cost/Km is higher in an EV than the equivalent Diesel when charging on public chargers.

@louiskhor then for most people it should be cheaper at about 35c/KWh, public rates are around 60-80c/KWh though
