Were far away from a smooth electric charging experience for rentals when you don’t know the area…in my view.
Thanks. This is why I'm a bit cautious about an all electric vehicle. It SOUNDS like a good idea -- especially in Europe, where petrol is super expensive -- but it actually has to work! Any more experiences?
