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.
The main "global" EV community is !electricvehicles@slrpnk.net

My current car gets decent mileage and is still running fine. I’m interested in the Ford Maverick as a possible future replacement (occasionally need a truck and this one solves most of the problems (size, mileage, cost)), charging is not quite ubiquitous enough for comfort (yes I could probably make any long trip work, but that is just it, I’d have to make it work and plan the trip around charging, which adds a whole other source of anxiety and complication (as would rental vehicles) Once chargers are more common in airport parking decks and hotels (e.g. not just two in a corner…) that will go away.) many are quite expensive.
