at the moment you can get a decent EV for under £10k. The people buying new and selling on used will still exist, they havnt vanished. ill tell you what will be expensive: Petrol. As demand drops there will be less petrol stations and they wont be able to justify the ludicrous subsidies.
Which models should I be looking at for this kind of price?
Earlier models like the Zoe, the e-golf, there’s a few. The tech has moved on a lot even in the last two years, so you’ll be getting city car runabouts rather than a giant volvo diesel equivalent. If you do under 10k miles a year those will be totally fine
Yeah but what I'd really need it for is my day job, which takes me to random addresses sometimes I'm gonna do 2/3 in a day which can be far apart. I was looking at the older electric berlingos but they're still pricy and the range doesn't cut it unless you go for the latest ones and then it's far out of my price range. That's why I'm currently driving a 2003 Kangoo for that and we have a hybrid Lexus ct200h as the family car/my wife.
