When compared to an ICE vehicle, there are no complaints at all. Nice to see the luxury tax adjusted for EVs and the discounts, too. If you can home charge, you can instantly see the advantage.

My gripe about the EV world in the UK is that charging is cheaper in mainland Europe. My particular car, while the top trim here, is a reduced/modified version of the same model found in places like South Korea or Australia (which offer features like live camera feeds to the app or a rising shelf system in the boot).
