    Your point is purely anecdotal. I see lots of Teslas where I live, so there’s that. I also see more BEVs than PHEVs, which is also in line with sales figures.

    So, to be blunt, I think your perception is skewed or wrong.

      Yes, indeed it is anecdotal.

      Did the sentence “In the two or three European countries I visit often you definitely see more of those, at least anecdotally” tip you off? I find that very observant.

        So you’re spewing irrelevant nonsense just to ridicule people who call you out on your irrelevant nonsense by telling them you know it’s irrelevant nonsense?

          No, I saw a piece of data that doesn’t match my experience, which meant I must be missing something, so I asked.

          You should try it sometime, it’s super useful for figuring things out. It’d help.
