    For clarity, I’m not saying everyone can not own a car, but most people definitely don’t need a yank wank truck, or a car that drives 1000 km in a single go, for the vast, vast, vast majority of their trips.

    I think there’s a case to be made that if one must have a car, and they have the option of choosing an electric car, they should do that, and in the rare cases they need a car that runs on fuel for range or lack of charging options, just rent one.

    I hope you get some more transport options near you soon to tick you over to the car-free life!

      Not buying more car than I need was definitely something I thought about when I bought mine. It’s okay that trips I do every 2 or 3 months need a charging stop. I was taking a break during those anyway, so the smaller battery size is fine.
