This EV owner has appealed for his unfortunate experience to be a warning to others contemplating buying an electric car. Take heed, and learn from his experience if you are wise....

He bought a $150,000 Volkswagen, lol.

Dear God. After 10 minutes of babbling without getting to the point, I turned him off.

Why can't he get to the bloody point?

His message could have been communicated in one or two minutes.

The key points:

EVs should be regarded as disposable

The rate of depreciation is very high.

The charging infrastructure is very poor and charge times are very long

The car's 'brain' can lock you in or out of the car for no reason

Replacement battery costs are exorbitant

Don't buy an EV.
