We talk to a lot of drivers who could just as easily buy fossil cars, but they don't.

Maintenance, tax, decreased running bills for fuel.

28 percent are watching, following the market with keen eyes in the move from fossil running to clean energy running, so naturally they seek to secure their next car wisely.

The practicality of electric cars doesn't need as much dramatics as it gets, basically.
