So suddenly those cheap second hand EV's don't look so attractive.
That said, in the great scheme of things, it's not a million miles away from the kind of decisions you have to make with the economic life of liquid fuelled cars.

EVs are developing so rapidly I suspect their second hand value will plummet. If I were in the market for one now I think I’d be looking for a lease of some sort.
