Not sure where they proved the BBC wrong, but every story has an angle I suppose. I agree though that the beeb guy did concentrate on the limited range and recharging but that will be the consideration of most people buying one of these for everyday use. At the same time we have to note that most (if not all) EM leccy vehicle users have an ice car as well. In the UK having a second car is not feasable for a lot of people.

I hope the Beeb takes this on again, this time on TV. If they did an 'every day living with the Mini E, or Leaf or x....' for a month or so then that would be interesting.
