Economical motoring as cars are so reliable these days. I can remember when a car that had 100K on the clock was a complete wreck mechanically. These days it's barely run in.

So not only do electrics need to be as convenient as fossil fuels but the availability and price of 2nd hand need to be reasonable too.

I can see trying to sell a 5 year old electric almost impossible without a new battery. You can't tell if it's about to die. Unlike a petrol/diesel engine if it smokes, overheats or knocks you know it's shagged.
