As for forcing you. Do the maths. Uk new car ban is 2030. On December 30th 2029 you can buy a new petrol car. Drive ir for 10 years or so. That's 2040. With plenty of maintenance you may get even longer. So say 2050. As for forcing. Oil companies have been forcing you to buy dangerous chemicals killing you and your family, paying high prices for it, driving less safe and higher fire risk cars. Oh and far less inefficient. Well to wheel efficiency is 20% vs 81% for an ev. You struggle to get an all year mog of 40. I get 150 all year round at fuel that's a 1/10 of the cost.

I had a Chevrolet Volt for 4 years that was in the shop on average once a month, for anything from locks failing, water ingress in the charging circuit causing systenm to slow charge only, radio failing, ventilation system failing, you name it. I was in there so much that they knew me by name and I was getting very tired of wasting my time in there. At the beginning of it all, I never had to wait to charge it and it was mostly free. Then they split the load in that parking lot where I'd spend an hour each morning topping up the ridiculous short range while having to eat breakfast at McDonalds before heading to work. So if another car showed up, you only got 1/2 the charge in that hour. Then they limited plugging in to one hour and would start charging you after that. Then you never knew if you'd even get to charge the car. Sometime the charging cable was cut by thieves looking for copper. Now for the good news: I stopped eating at McDonald, lost weight, stopped getting up at 4:30AM, and traded the Volt for a pick-up truck. It took me four years to realize I was the fool in that scenario, but fool me once...you know the rest. Never again!😊 This was in Vancouver, BC where now you need to make reservations for a charge to have the luxury of sitting around wasting time you don't have. The whole exercise is a joke. I'm so glad I moved out and got out of this when I did.

It's no secret that electric vehicles are very heavy due to the batteries weight, so this in turn has an extra wear affect on the highways, but the government should have pointed out that road fund licence duty will be payable, but then again, they had to make EVs sound attractive in the first place to sell them, CO2 levels will be the same, it's just chugging it out at a higher level in the sky at the power station as what fossil fuel vehicles do

If EV's are as good as the evangelicals and governments would have us believe, why all the initial discounts and dangling carrots? Keep up the good work, Lee. Keep banging that drum and putting the truth out about EV's.

@@shirley1827 I remember it well. About 1990. And excise duty on diesel about 20p per gallon cheaper than petrol. It encouraged me to buy a diesel, and have enjoyed 25 years of initially cheaper fuel, but in the end cheaper motoring, as diesels are more efficient and reliable. Meanwhile govt got revenue from diverse fuel sources and improved fuel resilience. So it wasn’t a bad policy to nudge people using incentives - and incentives don’t last forever. Same with EV’s but you can’t tax fuel that runs your washing machine. (Can’t recall a diesel washer dryer, but there would have been outrage if there was and diesel tax went up). EV’s are great. Smooth, quiet, clean, reliable, and cheap as chips once the loans are paid off. One day I will pay for my road tax. It’s fine. It doesn’t matter. The incentives have helped.

@foxtrot-ez1455 don't you think that if it is that cheap at those times 11.30 am to 5.30 am your times, then every other driver would have an EV? I take it you have a wall box and off street parking? Where I live, I would like that luxury! On street parking is great if everyone has one car per household, not when some have at least two and some others have three. How would I charge my car? Seriously. Say for example I go to Cardiff for the day. I park on street for free as it's closer for me as I have mobility issues. Take last week. Full tank of petrol (35 litres) in south Wales. A465, A40 heading to the M5 then M6 north to Preston. Roadworks on the A465 as usual. Slow traffic on the M6. Fuel gauge halfway between 1/4 and 1/2. I must have been driving like a granny. Nope. When I had the chance I was 75/80 and also headlights and air con were on all the way. Parked car. Did some light driving in Preston next day. Next day, find petrol, fill up and drive back to Wales. No charging facilities outside the Premier Inn. M6 hold up and it wasn't the only one. M6 j8 to join M5 south. It was stop, crawl, stop, crawl. This carried on for 3 miles and then it was same on M5 south. Again headlights and air con used along with wipers on intermittent sweep. Then there were road closures on A40. I got back with 1/4 tank fuel. Only stops were for the loo. I had a full tank leaving. Full tank coming home, only a small 35 litre fuel tank. Two fuel stops, with headlights and air con running for the trip up and trip back. Ten minutes total for both fuel stops. I didn't have to any stops for extra fuel like I would with an EV. By the time you faff about plugging your EV in to charge in a motorway station, I have stopped, used the loo, washed my hands and I'm back in my car and on my way. An EV doesn't work for me and I won't buy into the BS that they're the future. I don't see why I should be financed up to my ears with something that loses money faster than an alcoholic heading to a free bar and I don't want.

I have been saying thst RV are a con since 2009. I worked for Renault at the time of the launch and fanfare of all electric vehicles. I and my work colleagues voiced our concerns about estimated ranges, payloads etc etc etc. When advising customers NOT to purchase them as being unfit for their needs, Renault tried to come down on me like a ton of bricks. When will EV users realise that the infrastructure to support these vehicles is still 10 years away. The ranges advertised are NOT real world test figures as things like temperature , additional passengers, weight etc etc are NOT taken into account. Instead of just looking at Zero tail pipe emissions, look at the CO2 in production and CO2 cost of transportation of components. We dont make batteries in this country, but ship components from all over world, on ships that use diesel engines that are at best less than 50% efficient. And people think they are saving the planet. Dream on

It is as simple as that. we are too busy to stop and think or have the unity to stick up for each other as a community in numbers to say NO. IMO we all need to take a leaf out of the Travellers that dont register their kids or live in houses being ripped off. They stick up for each other, provide and feed off the land and the dumb. Travellers or pickeys as some say are more of a rightous bunch than 90% of us wimps are.

The whole pretext about EVs based on climate change is also a lie. EVs have the same carbon footprint as internal combustion engines per mile because you have to plug them jnto the mains to charge them, and guess how they generate the mains electricity? Yes by burning fossil fuels (mainly natural gas). On top of that EVs have a 50% higher carbon footprint than internal combustion cars because of the energy required to extract the components required to make the lithium batteries which is about 50% of the energy consumed within the life of the car - even before it has been driven. They lie about this by accounting for the carbon footprint required to make the batteries as a foreign carbon footprint tax which has to be bourne by the "bad" countries that mine the lithium, while we the "good" countries that use the EVs are saints who are doing everything we can to prevent global warming by using the EVs. The problem is that this is a lie - global warming is - well global, and we have one common atmosphere. Carbon dioxide released anywhere on the planet will contribute just the same to global warming. EVs are therefore the dirty option as well as the expensive option.

This guy does nothing but moan, and you lot are drawn in by it. If you say something often enough, your words will stick. And that's what he has been doing. He could have bought a far cheaper car but chose to buy a porsche. A replacement battery for his car is almost twice that of another leading EV car brand. The car itself was a minimum 30 grand more expensive, but so what! And then he moans and moans and moans about how much he has lost it the last 3 years (or however long he's had the car). But moaning because you are going to have to pay road tax, BIG DEAL!!!

Having driven EV's since testing a prototype for a big brand 14 years ago, I could see the limitations with them from day one. Whilst they are a nice drive, the range is impractical unless one stays local. The advertised range is achievable on a good day. It will be reduced in the winter when using the lights, wipers and especially the heating. I've had them trip out overnight at 60% which meant it was useless for that day's intended work, and, in the early days, even had to ask a customer to charge it for me as there was nowhere else in that area. I've had to drive a car to prove to a complaining customer that the vehicle can do the 300 mile range advertised. To do this I drove on the motorway at a steady 50mph on good summer days. My advice is to always halve the range shown on the screen. I've had to go to the assistance of vehicles running out of power because the charging points shown on apps were not working. They'd run out of power looking for power. Recharging away from home will be at commercial rates instead of domestic rates at the applicable VAT rates. One customer recently told me he was charged £5 to get 20 electric miles in his PHEV. More expensive than petrol & diesel. Not everyone lives in houses with off-street parking. With many houses converted to flats, how/where are people going to charge their EV's/plug-in hybrids? Running a cable across the pathway is illegal and dangerous unless, I believe, it has 10 feet headroom clearance. Failure to charge a plug-in hybrid may bring the EML on. After around 8-10 years the battery's range will have reduced, thus devaluing the car faster than a ICE. It was inevitable that road tax was always going to come to make up for the loss of revenue on that and fuel duties. Yes low or zero road tax was the carrot to get you hooked. You now have the choice of paying it or trading the car in at a greater depreciation loss. My dirty diesel is currently zero road tax but does over 60mpg and can go over 600 miles before refuelling.

This brings to mind the electric battery operated vacuum cleaners. Of course they were great when they first came out, the freedom to pick off the hook and use straight away, no lead catching on anything. However, after a few months it became clear that the batteries were getting shorter and shorter usage time (it was never as good as the selling literature claimed) and after about a year you’d be lucky to get 5 mins before they needed recharging and the suction decreased with time. These original ones which could cost up to £500+ had the battery included in the appliance so the whole thing had to be thrown. After a couple of these vacuums over the years, lasting about a year each, I’ve now gone back to plug in ones, and short of a power cut, they will keep going for many, many years AND, importantly, they do the job for which they were intended, suck up the dirt efficiently. I know know they have battery packs you can buy/charge independently but like always, their powering charge decreases over time and you need to buy more batteries. Where do all these old batteries go? Do they just disappear into thin air or do they go to a landfill site full of dangerous, eroding and leaking batteries? How wonderfully Green🙄.
