I was talking to a mechanic I know well, about electric cars. He said they are very fast on take off, faster than conventional cars , but as time goes by, the efficiency of the battery decreases by increments of 1 mile on the range. A new replacement battery cost £5000 apparently so I can't see those cars having a good second hand value. In my view, electric cars are not a viable option. I think Honda has got it right with hydrogen and manufacturers should concentrate more on that but the snag is that there is no money for the oil industry and governments with hydrogen so they won't back it. Never mind ecology, money will always come first, won't it?
