Sir, – Colm Barrington (Letters, July 26th) writes that range anxiety is still a problem for him after three years of electric car ownership, and he states that it is a major deterrent to others who might purchase an electric car. Since most of us drive a very long journey only a handful of times in a year, why don’t motor dealers, when selling electric cars, build into the deal an arrangement whereby a petrol or diesel car could be rented for a few days at an agreed, reasonable rate on those occasions when a long journey is necessary? – Yours, etc,
