If electric cars are the future, it's a future I want no part of.

I certainly can't tell a warm, decently insulated petrol from an electric car when it's cruising along at 20mph in a car park. The noise of the tyres completely drowns out everything else.

Not at 20 mph they don't.

Is it just me that thinks that sounds terrible? It sounds like it's going to stall all the time.
