    Haha. I get it. It’s a company car though. As many are. The corporation pays the fuel bill. So the vehicle has to be able to perform like that for many, many km. And it does. There will be a change coming for sure, but right now, the EV just can’t do it.

      I was not thinking about the cost for the wallet but more for the cost for the environment.

      I don’t think using 5 time more energy just to gain few minutes is the best use of limited resources, we are transitioning from a world where resources a considered unlimited to a world where resources are scarce and need to be used appropriately.

      So there is a change coming for sure but I expect the change will be more that speed on highways will get lower, few countries are already considering lowering the speed limit on highways.
