Anybody within easy travelling distance to Farnborough could see a LOT of EVs, the Fully Charged Show is on at the International Exhibition Centre 28th to 30th.
Other commitments have stopped it for me. :(
The show isn't just for vehicles it also covers domestic electrics.

Not a spot exactly but on Monday evening I was a passenger in some huge electric Audi thing... No idea what model it was but it was biiiiiiig and very black...

Point was, that was the first time ever I've ridden in an EV. Gosh, the acceleration from a standing start was utterly astonishing.... It felt like taking off in an RAF Vickers VC10 on a short runway... Pushed right back into my seat...

And eerily quiet too.. Just a gentle hum...

I can see why EVs are the object of some affection in some quarters...

Owner hates it. He told me he much prefers his Tesla and is chopping the Audi in for an electric Merc.

Hardly any today, mostly due to inattention but three ID3s, a Tesla S, a Kia something and a few unidentified, only spotted the green flash. Usual Thursday trip to Durham.

+ an ID3, Two Teslas, a Fiat Panda?, a Mercedes? and an ??? - black SUV with a painted on badge, looked like a horse. Passed very quickly (in a 20 zone) too quick to see.
All within a mile from home, walked to the shops for a present, most of the walk was through a park.

Dont think the Fiat Panda EV is quite there yet, although originally forecast to be released this year., and your horse could well have been a Mustang Mach-e.

I did look at Fiat Electric photos. The thing I saw look more like the Panda that anything else in their range. They all whizz past too fast for a photo.
And the ugly horse thingy does appear to be a Mustache E. Seen from behind with the nag where the GT badge is placed in the Ford page.

I've got used to phone photos tuning on their side but myglaren's one just turned upside down when I clicked on it.
