I'm just looking at the costs involved in a small EV, a Nissan Leaf.

Battery replacement cost is £4,920 with £1000 back for your old battery. The battery has a five year or 60,000 mile guarantee.

A more comfortable car with a larger battery costs considerably more, I've seen up to £10,000 quoted.

Also, this fast charging lark isn't so fast. Some are quoted as taking an hour to get up to 80% charged.

Also, only "some" hybrids will be allowed to be sold until 2035.
