    I will get an EV when the range/charge speed will allow me to make it 7 miles in 24 hours. And maybe if they’re small enough to fit in a passenger train.

          Yes, but recharging those is messier and requires extra steps.

          Plus I’m pretty sure that they’d be greeted with little enthusiasm on most passenger trains 😄

              Sure, but donkeys big enough to ride aren’t exactly little 😁
