Electric cars can't cut UK carbon emissions while only the wealthy can afford to own one

Once again, most EV owners will charge at home or work they won't need a public charger - only a couple of times a year. It's all getting out of the fuel station idea where you have to drive to fill up, not needed with electric, it's available everywhere.

You can already charge at a rate of 1000miles range per hour. A large enough battery and you would realistically stop every 5 hours for 20~30 minutes.

Not bad rest break for that amount of driving (this is a couple of times a year for most). You would also refill at your destination for most people, while you do what you need to do there.
