Completely agree. I’m looking for a new car and I’ve dry runned some long road trips I commonly do between Yorkshire and Dublin, and in a pure ev car, it’s a very different prospect to petrol only.
Plus, hybrid has lots of regenerative energy recovery that can be done to extend the mpg on the same fuel.

If you wanted to arrive in Dublin with a fullish battery, there's a Gridserve at the port itself, or it looks like you can even charge onboard the ferry. https://www.irishferries.com/ie-en/frequently-asked-questions/general-information/electric-cars/ https://www.irishferries.com/ie-en/frequently-asked-question... I'm sure those chargers are all relatively expensive per kWh though, so yes compared to a petrol/diesel it would be a more expensive journey.
