The Climate, Environment and Energy Thread

[Gointocarlton]

Im 50/50 GTC...my brain says the next car we buy has to be some form of EV either Hybrid, PHEV or Full electric but when you sit down and do the maths, pros and cons its hard to justify the expense. You look at the resale value on a EV with old batteries for example and it isnt going to be great and we just dont do the Km's anymore.
Also do you want to be stuck with a combustion only vehicle in 5-7 years time when Governments are going to be insisting you go some form of EV and making life harder for non EV cars/owners.
Long gone are the days when you keep a car for ten plus years like you and I might have done in the past...with tech changing/safety equipment getting more advanced etc you feel more inclined to upgrade to keep your family safer and thats how cunning car makers market and make their cars now...what to do?

EVs won't cut it for what I need EOS. They can't take away what I need.
