Between us we have had zoe R1, Zoe R2, fist 500e, hyundai ioniq 5.

Pros, massively cheaper. We put about 500kwh in a month at about 7p per kwh. That’s about 2000 miles (between three cars) a month for £35. No ICE is anywhere near that. Money saved basically pays for the two smaller cars.

Cost us best worked out over year, a lot of what about ism on cost based on only charging on expensive public chargers when vast majority of miles should be covered by cheap home charging. If it’s not then I wouldn’t be buying an ev.

Never bother with fuel stations again. EV charging at home or if out on long trip we charge while car is parked and we doing something else. The ioniq we charge at ultra rapid in about 20 minutes while eating on long journeys.

Fiat does about 140 miles, zoe 200 miles, ioniq about 280 miles. All actuals between charges not indicated max range with no headroom.

Cons, more effort for journeys as you have to plan charge stops for availability and cost. We can charge as low as 40p. Kwh and as high as 95p kwh. Only a moron who doesn’t plan gets stuck with the latter in the UK. Charging when cost or timing is best is how to do it with EVs not a slavish adherence to charging when empty. The latter is properly idiotic and its as bad as not planning ahead. As is charging to 100% on public ultra rapids or any other expensive charger.

Not enough pull through spaces for charging while towing. We unhook, its a pain even with a motor mover for the trailer. Adds about 10 minutes per charge, max. Towing halves range typically. Anybody getting worse than that is driving fast with their trailer, as aero gets exponentially worse over 60 mph. It’s noticeable with a large trailer even between 58 and 62mph on a GPS speedo.
