"There has been a growing amount of negative mainstream media reporting on
electric vehicles recently, and many myths still need busting on a [regular]
basis. Some of this is borne from ignorance or a fear of the unknown, some of
it is the product of the fossil fuel lobby efforts to slow down the inevitable
transition.
Rather than focus on the negatives, I thought it would be refreshing to talk
about the wonderful array of benefits that come from switching to an electric
vehicle.
Whether you are on the fence about purchasing your first EV or have friends or
family who are unsure about making the transition, talking about these benefits
will hopefully encourage people to take an EV for a test drive or finally make
the jump into an EV.
Before getting into the benefits though, it is worth acknowledging that EVs
aren’t for everyone, and there are use cases that EVs can’t fulfil yet.
My brother is a perfect example, he lives completely off-grid on a rural
property and enjoys travelling in his 4WD through the remote outback and across
deserts. It may still be years before suitable electric 4WDs and the necessary
infrastructure exist to fulfil my brother’s use case. (Although, to be sure,
some off-grid people do have EVs).
In the meantime, here are eight key benefits that everyone can take advantage
of by switching to an electric vehicle."
Exactly what I tell people.
