      Yes – but the usability used to be pretty bad until recently.

      I had friends using electric cars ~ 8–10 years ago. The effective range was often less than 100 km, carging time abysmal long, even lesser range in winter, famously no heating nor radio in winter to preserve battery. No fun.

      It got better just the last couple of years, but only for upper class and a few middle class vehiclrs. They are still not able to build affordable small cars with a usable range.

      Happy to be proven wrong.

        Can’t prove you wrong. I am upper class and can afford luxury.
        At the same time tho, theres also no affordable combustion cars. Affordable means used.
