Hi All,
I am considering the purchase of an electric car for the daily commute. I have to travel 20 miles each way, about half of which is open A roads and the other half in stop start traffic. My budget is 3 - 4K so I have been looking at the Reva G-Wiz. I have a couple of questions:
1. Is there an alternative to the Reva?
2. If I were to buy one that needed battery replacement are there alternatives to the lead-acid that Goingreen supply (£2K!) that would give better range (and hopefully cheaper?)
Thanks,
Ian
