Re: 1000 cycles?
The point of my post is that it's not about the cost, and that for some people "range anxiety" is a concern based on their actual usual use of a car, rather than scare mongering.
*if* I commuted by car, I would already own an EV. I've got a neighbour who commutes daily over 50 miles each way in an EV, but their car simply wouldn't work for my lifestyle, and there is no EV available right now in the UK that would work for me. (Teslas cost far too much for an average family car, and in addition, can't carry bikes for 4 people...)
There's also the rather interesting question of whether the national grid is going to have enough reserve (not wind or solar) capacity added in time to meet the UK government's timescale for phasing out internal combustion cars....
