Many moons ago, when it was first mooted that electric cars were going to be the big thing, I’ll admit I was pretty sceptical. I remember, after an air crash, there was talk about making the airlines rearrange their seats and have them all facing the rear of the plane. A safety expert had said it was safer for some reason. Perhaps it is, but either way I’ve never been on a plane where the seats face the rear and, if I’m honest, I’m not sure I’d like it. So when people started talking about EVs, my initial view was that they would never see the light of day. I was wrong. There are now a lot of them and I’ve transferred my feelings of doubt to driverless cars and airborne taxis of which I’ve seen none.
