Gut! Richtig! Endlich wird auch über diese - eigentlich als Binsenweisheit zu bezeichnende - Tatsache berichtet. Es wird Zeit, dass die richtigen Multiplikatoren (= Redakteure der üblichen Auto-Motor-usw.-Presse) diesen Hintergrund begreifen. Ich als Privatmensch schreibe mir seit 3 Jahren die Finger wund in Leserbriefen, aber das hat keine Wirkung. Seit 3 Jahren habe ich ein elektrisches Erstauto, seit 3 Monaten ein zusätzliches Plug-in, und nur in den Urlaub fahre ich mit dem bisherigen Verbrenner. Ganz nebenbei: nur die, die schon mal mit einem E-Smart gefahren sind, wissen wieviel Spaß das Fahren machen kann (Ampelstart!)
