Environment

Asking our followers on Instagram, 59% of respondents said that they would not own an electric car, compared to 41% who said they would.

Meanwhile, 8% said that they own an electric car, compared to 10% who own a hybrid and 82% who own a fuel combustion engine.

Asking people why they would not own an electric car, 47% said that they are too expensive to buy or own, whereas 31% said that there are limited charging points.

Another 22% said that they do not have a place to charge it at home. Asking for other reasons, some said that they are not yet feasible and/or sustainable.

Others touted a lack of planning by the authorities to improve the quality of the traffic system or even a lack of mechanics that work on electric cars.

Others simply touted the joy they find in driving in a fuel combustion engine.
