Electric car disaster for rural Scottish tourism

SIR – I wonder if anyone has considered the catastrophic effect this headlong rush into electric vehicles will have on tourism in remote areas such as north-west Scotland.

Hotel chains may be prepared to install numerous charging point, but B&BS, small guesthouses and self-catering businesses, which are the backbone of the trade in these regions? I doubt it. I fear history may show that the electric car revolution will prove to be the biggest dead end the motor industry has ever driven down.

Keith Jacques (Letters, November 13) is right: hydrogen is the fuel of the future. But infrastructure first, please.
