Electric car makers really must stop getting the Daily Express to review their models, otherwise they will be a bigger laughing stock than they are now.
This week it is the turn of the Corsa-e, a snip at £30k, even after the govt subsidy of £3000.
Who on earth would want to pay £33k for a Corsa, which you could buy for £15925 with a proper engine?
It has a range of just 209 miles, which means well under 100 miles in real driving conditions.
And to cap it all, it conked out on the test drive. Colin Goodwin may laugh it off as a one-off glitch, but if he had been on the motorway, he would not be around to tell the story now.
Phasing out petrol and diesel vehicles is one of Ursula von der Leyen’s main planks of her Green Deal, which is aimed at turbo-charging the EU economy.
I would have thought that forcing people to buy cars,which they don’t want, which cost twice the normal price and which manufacturers don’t want to make, would have the opposite effect!
