Nearly Half of EV Owners Would Switch Back to Combustion Engine Vehicles: Study - EnergyPortal.eu

this statistic does not account for Tesla loyalists, as three-quarters of Tesla owners indicated that they would continue with EVs.

Some people just like Elon Musk

    Maybe, but I guess it suits certain purposes.

    We’re never going back to ICE, though. Quite happy with our leaf, would happily upgrade to something else but charging it a couple of times a week is no bother

      I’ve been similarly happy with my Bolt. I’ve had it for 3 years and can’t imagine going back to ICE, except maybe for a roadster. I miss my Miata.

      It helps that I charge at work for free, but even before I had this job is was nbd to charge at the grocery store once a week. I struggle to understand people who are hesitant to try out EVs.

      How has the reliability on your Leaf been?

        I can’t think of any issues we’ve had, at all. There’s so little to go wrong with them…

        They’re certainly less riddled with things to break than other Nissans I’ve driven. More like a basic Toyota in some ways
