So you just need to be driving a diesel to be able to get away, as it will run out of charge!

it has a 1.4 corsa engine running the battery charger and ice cream maker lol

25 to 50 mile range on battery
and charge rate 6 hours and with the cost of elec atm be cheaper to run it with a petrol engine

£30k for a car that will do as little as 25 miles on a battery? I can think of better ways to waste my money :rolleyes:

and it takes 6 hours to recharge the batteries!

If people are really that bothered about economy, surely a small 1.3 diesel Corsa would be MUCH better
