Vauxhall is no longer interesting to me since I have always been more of a fan of General Motors than Ford (or even Peugeot). This is because Vauxhall is no longer a part of GM. I have my doubts that they will be able to provide anything distinctive in this nation at this time, other than maybe somewhat less radical copies of Peugeots. I am thrilled to get rebuttals!
Peugeots are also somewhat cheaper and ugly.
I have yet to encounter someone who honestly believes EVs are superior.
We haven't met yet, do we? I'm vendimoto and I believe that EVs are superior in a variety of ways.

I am Hercules as well. It was improved after two years of owning an EV. When the time comes, I'm looking forward to putting my hands on one once again.
But how many people really purchase brand new items? There aren't many, since most of it is conducted via PCP or other alternate schemes. So, what is the difference between the two automobiles in terms of the monthly payment? Additionally, if you drive a work vehicle, you need to take into consideration the advantageous BIK rates.
The year 2030 is still 7 years ahead. Hybrid vehicles will be available until 2035. So, if one buys an ICE vehicle today, he will most likely need to change cars by 2035, at which point he will be obliged to purchase an EV. Until then, we have the option of ICE or EV.
I hear that several manufactures are discontinuing ICE vehicles, so options will be restricted. However, there are many EV detractors who may keep old ICE vehicle values high.
Regarding the benefits of EVs, if we exclude the environmental and financial benefits (which are disputed), I am truly interested in learning what advantages EVs have over ICE/hybrid vehicles.

I'm attempting to understand the "advantages" of "no gas stations." Instead, since EVs (yet) cannot go 500 miles on a single fill and drivers will take longer to "fill" their vehicle, there will likely be a greater demand for EV-charging stations.
In any case, since most gas stations have evolved into convenience stores with a few pumps attached, similar to how airports have runways, as is well known.
