Where the heck did you get that logic? Plenty of people can charge their cars away from home and like many don’t park their car actually at their property if they don’t have a car parking space, just like any other vehicle.

@Seoulhawk01 This is why frankly I will happily buy a BYD vehicle now. I know it’s risky, but frankly it feels like the only practical option I have lined up for me right now. I just don’t give a damn anymore. If our governments don’t want us to do it, then they need to subsidise their companies as well FFS, otherwise they are just being clearly petty. Nothing else.

@myspace1876 Wow, you sound kind of like the people who were clinging onto trains no matter what in the old steam days, not accepting that the roads were going to become king.

Exactly. This is insanity. I’m in Britain and the equivalent which should be just over £40,000 is still not at all affordable. Not unless my rich parents paid for it or something, which my current generation could really use right about now. And convincing them to actually give us the money for it is very hard because they with their small minds just want you to get a petrol vehicle and don’t take the risk with an EV or plug-in hybrid .😩😓 We seriously need a lot more 15 to 20K options (outside of BYD and Honda) otherwise nobody outside of this limited bracket of people who can afford such a thing is going to takeoff. This is why we need to be like China and actually subsidise these companies. If our countries are suddenly so against these EVs flooding our markets, then they need to fight back ‘by not just being pathetic and petty’ and giving us BS by trying to block them, but by actually subsidising the European and American companies that are going full EV in the first place. Do that, and the uptake of EV‘s will sore again. If not, then they are basically doing the same thing as Apple increasing the product prices to over 1K or charging 3K for the first augmented reality headset (even if it was basically an alpha test) expecting customers to just get the money out of nowhere as if we’re just pulling it out of the hat.
