Did anyone else note the letter in the latest magazine from a guy who has bought a Mercedes EQC 400 Sport. This is an all electric car which costs in the region of £65,000. For that price it is possible to pull a caravan of 1500kg for all of about 100 miles before needing to be recharged ! It might be super quiet and well built but at that price I would hope it is.
For the life of me I cannot see diesels being phased out during my lifetime. There isn't anything at present that is a viable equivalent that could take the place of a diesel engine that most people would be able to afford.
Don't get me wrong, I've got nothing against electric vehicles, our milk used to be delivered in one every morning, but there are so many things that will need to be addressed before they can be universally accepted. I see a great future, though, for companies making very long heavy duty extension leads !!
