A UK-centric Electric Vehicles community, where discussion/news of the wider European continent is welcome.

All discussion of EVs (and hybrids for the moment), charging networks, etc, welcome!

No USA/Americas news unless it is relevant to the UK/Europe - most of the existing EV communities on Lemmy are awash with US discussion, please use one of those. US news and discussion will be removed.

I cant argue with someones' nan's facebook feed telling them outright lies, but there is a hell of alot of misinformation being peddled - and not just from anti-EV people. Some very pro-EV people also talk total shit. If you havnt considered it, why not?

Right now, the vehicles my wife and I own are in good shape, and have a lot of life left in them, and they are paid for. I'm reluctant to get rid of them to buy a new car, especially since a new EV would be hideously expensive, and a used EV isn't easy to find in my area.

I wish someone would make an electric motorcycle that wasn't so expensive.
