I don’t think the issue will be the vehicles, it will be the commitment to rolling out the charging points in this country. Needs firm commitment from highest levels, eg Government, to make electric vehicles an easy and viable choice. And of course the underpinning generation primarily from renewables to be truly more eco friendly.

That possibly dovetails nicely with the touring ethos, hopping around after a shortish drive. We do nice little tours like that in UK, be good to be able to do it via a cleaner fuel. 😄

See what the younger generation are doing in the UK DD, the kit they take as well, I think we're falling behind in our concept of electric campers etc. It would be good if the club got up to speed on some of the possibilities out there. You have to get your brain round EVs, it's such a different outlook.

75 miles is a joke. It would just about get me to Exeter.😂

There's a way to go yet - pardon the pun.

You could charge it at Putts Corner over night before your next 75 miles. 

I'll stick with my 5 minute fill up and 400 mile range  I think wink

I doubt I’d reach Putts, Milo😄. 

I’m with you on the 5/400👍🏻

Firstly, it's a very cramped camper. Not the sort of thing I'd want to do an extended tour in. OK for overnighting or a few days at a festival type of thing. The range is quoted as 80 miles on motorway conditions. I'll warrant it would be significantly less on something like the A39 between Minehead and Ilfracombe. Sadly not realistic.
