This is why EVs are moving to a car + battery-leasing model of sale instead.Isn't the biggest problem with electric cars going to be residual values? Who wants to buy a 7 year old EV with no range due to knackered batteries? On top Gear last week it was said that the effective range of the "11" plate Nissan Leaf was 35 miles ! That would be like driving with the fuel light on constantly and who likes to drive like that? Battery technology is the key so I think I shall wait a while jumping to an EV. By then it won't matter as I will probably be asking whether the visitors have been whilst dribbling.....
