Is this relevant to this EV thread?
Maybe he wanted to post about the MG Cyberster and got the wrong car that looks a bit like it?
Until you get to the price tag for the Ferrari which is about £400,000..........more than the MG Cyberster will be.
yes - much of the discussion is on cars in general including those that are fun and sound and look good
Name another car on this thread that costs over 40p per mile to run, only has 2 seats and costs over £400,000 second hand.
HGV's have always been weight charged. To start doing that for EV's will give some a meltdown...
Well the heavier the vehicle the potential for more wear and tear on the roads

"However, the analysis (which did not carry out real-world tests) found that any extra wear is “overwhelmingly caused by large vehicles – buses, heavy goods vehicles”. Road wear from cars and motorcycles is “so low that this immaterial”, they said."
No one is saying they are too heavy for the roads, but they are heavier than the ICE requivalent in general and we all know that heavier vehicles do over time cause more damage to the road surfaces.Are electric cars too heavy for roads, bridges and car parks?

The ECIU’s Walker said concerns about extra weight for EVs were simply “massively overstated”. However, he added that carmakers do have a responsibility to produce smaller electric cars, after years of focusing on the most profitable SUVs.
The extra weight of electric cars is not likely to accelerate the destruction of roads, bridges and car parks. Weight concerns threaten to be a distraction from the ultimate prize: cutting carbon emissions to net zero.
