    Have you actually driven outside the city here? I need the 400km my EV has to get between capital cities

      A child’s skull doesn’t know whether it’s steel or lithium making up that extra 0.5T.

      Why would you drive between capital cities? There’s public transport for that.

      I need to drive from the bush into the nearby major town and back again. 50km round trip.

        I’m on a visit to the wine region around Adelaide, and am staying in Willunga. The trips I’m doing need a car, and the timing would be similar and the cost higher if I had flown to Adelaide and hired a car for the month

        And I couldn’t have seen the painted silos had I flown

        And I couldn’t have seen the sights of the great ocean road had I flown

        And road trips in an EV are quite nice.

        You can make good savings by not having a car at all, but that’s not possible outside Sydney and Melbourne and probably Hobart
