    On car sales, the main issue is that car companies are just too expensive and so not understand that they should be at price parity to compete! Vauxhall realised this and dropped prices, as they always do.

    Naw… I think Batch has been swayed by the fossil fools’ petrolganda. There is no slowdown with EV sales. Last quarter on this side of the pond, they hit the highest percentage of the market to date: 11.22%. Hmmm. Now I want to see Nicola’s doggies in one of these episodes.

    Re the Mini – it would be interesting to compare the models’ footprints.

    Yeahhhh, ✨✨✨✨✨ 5 stars, me happy with my favorite 30 minutes electric fun.
    We bought our first EV. One of the first CitroΓ«n Γ«-C3 Max in the Netherlands.
    We will have to wait till September/October when CitroΓ«n starts to deliver.
    2024 was the last year buyers could get €2950 tax reduction on new EV’s. In 2025 it is 0.
    We looked at the Mini, but that is around DOUBLE the price of the Γ«-C3.

    Hello Nicola, I don’t have an e v yet but I hear you talking about 1 pedal driving and I assume lifting off the Go pedal slows the car as in braking. Does the brake light come on to show the car behind you are slowing down. Not too silly a question I hope.

      Yes, they do. On Kia/Hyundai, for instance, brake lights come on with regen on level 2 or 3. Not on level 1, as it’s just like an ICE coasting.

    Tom’s video feed seems to be getting worse (more glitches / frame skips) in recent episodes. It’s a bit distracting. Can anything be done to prevent it please?

    It’s not misinformation or being scared of electric cars, it’s the bloody horrendous prices. Twice the price of a regular vehicle. Not everyone is an Elon Musk.
