Recently there's been a lot of adverts for the Nissan Leaf - one today stated it was "the most popular 100% electric car" So that means theyve sold two then!?
Fair play to the people who thought of, and designed this car - but its too early for anyone to actualy use an all electric car, unless all they do is drive 1 mile a week to the shops, in which case, they should be walking. There's no infrastructure of electrical charging stations to be able to drive one on a day to day basis. The batteries are also very expesive, and if they are looked after carefully, will last a max of 5 years. Look after the battery in a bad way, it could last you 1 year - and then its about £5k to replace it. So who are the two people that bought this car? A tax man, and someone who lives in the woods all year round?
