I've rented a few EVs to find out for myself what they're like because there is a lot of BS online, and the next car I buy will be for my wife who's current car is getting a bit long in the tooth.

It will definitely be an BEV. Why?

I prefer the constant and perfectly controlled acceleration.

I prefer the quiet running: music sounds better and conversation is easier without engine noise.

Range in modern EVs if far enough that my wife would only need to charge once every two weeks if she wanted to - not that it takes a long time to plug in a power point.

Less servicing and maintenance.

Not having to cue up like a drongo at the petrol station. Our local one is always busy so fuelling up takes ages, and it's on the wrong side of the road for us, so driving there is always a pain. Last time my wife went there two random guys got into a fistfight over who got to use the next pump.

It definitely takes more than 2 mins- more like half an hour.

Compare that to taking 10 seconds to plug and unplug at home.

Absolute no brainer for us.
