  7. Sweeds are wealthy enougg to afford an EV as a second car for driving around the city and have a gas guzzler for longer trips.

  8. What’s the charging infrastructure like? It’s getting a bit tougher each year in the UK. Queues at fast chargers are not unusual these days.

  9. Serious question between the mining that is done for the parts to produce the vehicles and the energy it takes to charge these vehicles do they actually make a difference or is this just some surface level feel like you’re making a difference type thing.

  10. Yeah, diesel is 20,50 euro.

    TCO for a new electrical vehicle passed that of a 10 year old Diesel some time ago.

    Problem is they are still expensive to buy and not accessible for the majority.

  12. Data is cool but it doesn’t show the actual use of those cars, for example my aunt just bought a plug-in hybrid because it was the only available car where she was but she already said that she won’t use the electric part of it because she has nowhere to charge it (she lives in the countryside) and doesn’t really understand the difference (due to her age). So yeah in stats it shows as an electric vehicle but in reality it will be used like a normal petrol car.

    I think we should count only fully electric vehicles in these stats.

  15. Is there data for the months before, since this might just be a temporary peak (government/ car retal making mass orders for example)?
    Also is it just cars or also electric bikes?
