Thanks but no thanks

Your article about petrol Kia versus electric Kia was great. As one of the ‘on-the-edge adopters’, I was really interested to see the electric car used only £17 less ‘fuel’ and took just 40 minutes longer, but you missed the bit about the biggest differences.

The Proceed starts at £25,480, while EV6 starts at £40,995, which is a staggering £15,515 difference, and now the government won’t even help with a decent grant or VAT reduction.

Add that to your article regarding the growing shortage of chargers (News, 9 March) and I’m going to agree with fellow reader Richard Bradshaw (Your Views, 9 March) and stick with my Porsche Cayenne GTS for the foreseeable. Roger Wilson
