The Nissan Leaf – a perfect use for that unwanted Christmas jumper | Environment | guardian.co.uk
Driving the Leaf to Charles Darwin's old home, Down House, in Surrey it began to snow. But switching the heating on has an unfortunate side-effect – the battery-range display plummeted from 77 to 54 miles. You can see why people talk about "range anxiety" with electric cars, even on this one, which officially goes for 110 miles on a full charge. Fortunately, having the lights and Radio 4 on don't have such a dramatic effect.

There you have it, the reason for buying these cars...it's a green status symbol, a symbol of environmental superiority. Taxpayers who could never afford one of these are subsidizing the wealthy buyers with the rebates. Ban lightbulbs, then buy an ELECTRIC car...
