The future of Electric Vehicles is here, yet for a number of us the outdated fear of a flat battery and range anxiety is still looming over us. It was only recently that Sara Sloman, who takes the driving seat in making the change to Zero Emissions, stopped at a very busy M6 motorway service station in Stafford, where there wasn’t one single EV charger in use. Yet, there were queues outside the door for the services and even an electronic billboard advertising, none other than an internal combustion engine vehicle, right above the EV chargers…
This is just one of many, many examples of how the flat battery fear is a misconception of reality, whilst all the latest models abolish the range anxiety as a car such as the Ford Mustang Mach-E can reach 370 miles. As Sara herself said, it’s like the fear of going to a party ‘what if no one likes me?’ (you’ve been invited and there’s always a bunch of fun people there!)… what if I have nothing to wear? (you have a wardrobe full of clothes)… well, what if the world moves forward and you don’t?
