WHY WE’RE RUNNING IT
To celebrate the survival – and indeed evolution – of the proper sports coupé
When we’re running an EV on our long-term test fleet, our reports tend to feature a lot of pictures of them plugged in. That’s partly because the foibles and intricacies of topping up a particular EV and the variances of the UK’s public charging network are key to the experience. But it’s also because the still-limited ranges of EVs compared with their combustion-engined contemporaries means you spend a lot of time either charging them or thinking about charging them.
