In this episode of EV Musings, Gary discusses the idea that households with off-street parking and two cars should consider making one of them electric. The conversation explores the case of households with two fossil fuel cars, addresses cost and range concerns, highlights the availability of small-sized EVs, and discusses the benefits of owning an EV. He also emphasizes the role of education and test drives in overcoming ignorance and misinformation about electric vehicles. Takeaways Households with off-street parking and two cars should consider making one of them electric. Cost and range concerns can be addressed, especially with the availability of affordable second-hand EVs and a wide range of small-sized EVs. Hybrids can be seen as a compromise, but if the goal is to go electric, it's better to choose a full electric vehicle. Owning an EV opens up opportunities for low-priced EV charging tariffs and other benefits. Education and test drives play a crucial role in changing perceptions and increasing EV uptake. If you have 2 cars and off-street parking one of them could be an EV. I'll tell you why.
