Big myth about electric car range in South Africa
South African consumers are overly concerned that the range of electric vehicles (EVs) is too short for their regular daily driving or even long-distance travel on several of the country's most popular routes.
Sceptics often scorn the sub-500km ranges of many EVs because they are lower than some petrol and diesel cars, some of which can achieve around 1,000km on a single tank of fuel.
