Ours, for the next 6 months, is in for some sort of minor recall. The mechanic showed me a picture of the battery. I can tell you it would not fit in my phone.
I do love an EV thread.

In for 6 months for a minor recall? Bloody hell, what if there was something seriously wrong.

I think the winder is broke.
Good point though, is it ours for six months, or in for six months.

I feel he's lying. He can't tell us what his EV is or what the problems he's having with it.
It's a shame really, but even the BBC lied to trash EVs this week. So it's a standard thing now.

Range anxiety.

An anxiety we only have to put up with until September. One longish journey did the car in for my wife. Anything over 100 miles we use the over 10yo bog standard Petrol car.

Maybe they should put one in North Ormesby Church clock. I was going to say Doggy but did not want to confuse outsiders.

EV's are rubbish.
Low range.
Slow.
Expensive.
Unreliable
Electric prices going through the roof.
Lack of charge points.
Full of hazardous materials, bad for the environmemnt.
(I just made all this up, just so that the arguments can start straight away, so that we all save time)

Not a patch on a shaving thread where all is usually sweetness and light.

Funny, I go to near there most weeks. According to some people on here what I'm doing is impossible. I must be a miracle worker!

Had the idea that it might be possible to convert my ageing and high-mileage (>150k) VW Golf to electric but from initial research, the costs are ridiculous.

The Mercedes Benz EQB 350 4Matic 215kW AMG Line has just been added to our company car list, and it looks the business, with a 260 mile range.
Has anyone seen one in the flesh or driven one? whats the feedback? Is it better than a Polestar 2 dual motor?

I've literally just come back from test driving a Polestar 2. The EQB doesn't look anywhere near as good but it'll be a damn sight bigger inside. The interior space in the Polestar is terrible for an EV. Acceptable in an ICE vehciel but not good enough for an EV. The rest of the car is tip top though: Excellent tech (and not tech in a tesla "look, it does fart noises" Tech but actual, working, vehicle tech). I drove the PP version and it's an excellent drive too. So in short, I haven't driven en EQB but if you want space, go for it over a polestar. For everything else I assume the polestar is better.
