    Default Electric cars

    Since Germany wants us to buy their electric cars, what are the advantages or disadvantages, how practical are they?

    Electrical cars are (at the moment) totally impracticable for most people.

    Got a diesel or petrol car? Two minutes to fill it. How long does it take to refuel an electric car? - That is the biggest drawback! Then we might consider range, or the cost of the replacement battery when it (inevitably) fails... Frankly I wouldn't touch one with a barge-pole.

    Personally, I think the green credentials of electric cars are non-existent; follow the cables back from the charging points, and you'll find yourself a load of nuclear, gas & coal fired power stations.
