An idling gas engine may be annoyingly loud, but that’s the price you pay for having WAY less torque available at a standstill.

    Keklol. On paper maybe. 250 max. 200 in the winter. If you’re lucky. That’s less than my bike. And I can go the entire trip at 160kph avg, while the EV loses like 30km range once it goes over 140.

    My current car cost me 9k. It’s super efficient. Why should I switch to EV? Can’t even afford one. Need another 4k investment to get a charging port installed, cuz there ain’t any nearby. There are zero upsides for me. Only more costs. Costs I won’t ever recuperate over the lifetime of the car. Or even my remaining lifetime.
