Should You Buy An Electric Car Now?

In the spirit of the TLDR summaries that we’ve been adding to our reviews, I’ll save you a few minutes of your life and say, no, you probably shouldn’t buy an EV now unless you happen to be very rich or you live or work near a charging point. If neither of the above describes you, then getting an electric car now would likely mean compromising on some aspects of your lifestyle.

Having tested several EVs, the one thing holding me back from recommending them – high prices aside – is the thorny issue of range and charging them. Charging always feels like a perilous undertaking because not only are you counting on the fact that it will be available when you get there, but you also have to pray that it works properly.
