We always hear the negative experiences.
It's not a nightmare for everyone in the UK though.
Recent example of a Tesla doing a 615 mile day trip in the UK in under 12 hours (with 1 hr 10 mins total time for charging along the way, 45 min stop, 25 min stop) using the Tesla supercharger network
With respect to uncovered charging, Gridserve in Braintree are showing what's coming. It's not all doom and gloom.
@KillerHERTZ Fair enough. I've used Ionity chargers 7 times now since they first launched in this country (once for a Tesla, 5 times for a Jaguar iPace and twice for an Audi E-Tron) and the chargers always worked fine for me.Teslas have the power infrustructure however, - this is how they are ahead of the pack and when everyone else fully catches up, I still belive they will become a charging company only in years to come.
Other EVs dont have access to these.
@KillerHERTZ Was Shmee forced to buy the Taycan? Surely he was free to buy a petrol powered 911?Shmee, (a full on Petrolhead) has said he bought the car to experience what its like as he, like the rest of us are being forced into getting an EV. He also said he would document the entire experience good and bad.
I dont in anyway think he was making it appear worse than it was for the sake of a video. its not in his interest.

I’ve been watching his videos for several years.Shmee, (a full on Petrolhead) has said he bought the car to experience what its like as he, like the rest of us are being forced into getting an EV. He also said he would document the entire experience good and bad.

Well in that particular video it showed no positive ones!We always hear the negative experiences.
@KillerHERTZ It all depends upon where you live and what type of journeys you do! Yes, if you look at the UK overall and you do long distance journeys (rather than a few miles here and there), the infrastructure to charge for non Tesla drivers is not that good.No of course, but he makes some valid points about the number of EV charging points is not being kept ahead of the number being sold.
Years from now (maybe even decades) this will be sorted out, however at the moment, unless you have a garage or a driveway the current solution of charging points doesnt work.
Not at all, but surely given the choice out there, isnt the Taycan the best of the bunch when it comes to the current EVs (for a Petrolhead?)
May be some one could put a link on here, of the Tesler EV that cought fire in the USA that took over 4 hours to put out and that was through the battery going up in flames like a Roman candle ..
