What did you do with your Range Rover today

Apart from all the other aspects, by my reckoning, BEV's are less fuel efficient than a modern diesel, for a start they are very heavy, more weight uses more fuel we are told, then look at how electricity is generated world wide, much of it using fossil fuel and external combustion, not very efficient. Then you have line losses, transformer losses stepping up the voltage for long distance transmission and down again for local distribution. Batteries are DC so there are rectification losses when charging the battery, the motors are AC so there are inverter losses converting back to AC and so on.
 
My P38 got dug up moved to Solihull to be built then to Wales and stayed here. Modern cars have been shipped around the world dozen times before they even get assembled. More pollution from building one EV than to run a p38 a lifetime.
No one seems to be bothered about the emissions from launching satellites to run the gps for directions to Aldi?
 
Today I drove Red Rover to where Brown Rover is parked up, then took Brown out for a little drive.

Both started first try and ran beautifully. Touch wood I haven't cursed either of them by saying that!
