I live in a courtyard environment where my house is forty yards past council houses from the nearest place i can park my car (which due to timing of my arrival after work often translates to 80 yards) so home charging is right out and therefore so is an EV. I'm pleased to hear ranges are getting close to the 300 miles I used to think was OK before I discovered diesel, though.
Contrastingly, my Skoda Octavia 1.9 Tdi can be filled in a couple of minutes and will then go from Farnborough to Aberdeen on one tank, avoiding the need to pay motorway prices on any UK journey.
Of course making journeys/days longer is a safety issue, especially if a day out is quite long already (e.g. Taiga Flycatcher and Rufous Bushchat in a day starting from Farnborough.) So multiples of 40 minute charges are very bad.
Obviously some way to go yet for the next generation to catch up with the present one.
