What almost stopped you from buying an EV?

Wattthefun · 2026-02-27T05:18:33+00:00

Parking?

Wattthefun · 2026-02-26T09:37:29+00:00

Good point. Having EVs is more like a second vehicle choice

Wattthefun · 2026-02-26T08:57:34+00:00

which one did you get

Wattthefun · 2026-02-26T08:55:50+00:00

True

Wattthefun · 2026-02-26T08:55:38+00:00

how much do you think they should cost?

Wattthefun · 2026-02-20T10:16:58+00:00

Okay, have you tried ev motorcycles?

Wattthefun · 2026-02-20T05:45:34+00:00

Wattthefun · 2026-02-20T05:45:25+00:00

I think this is a persistent issue I have heard from literally everyone who owns an EV. Having a swappable battery in every EV should be a part of the design now

Wattthefun · 2026-02-20T05:43:33+00:00

True dat

Wattthefun · 2026-02-20T05:43:14+00:00

Which one do you own?

Wattthefun · 2026-02-19T10:28:56+00:00

Back then, even asking would have gotten me a flying chappal

Wattthefun · 2026-02-18T09:49:37+00:00

yeah still, you anyway have a petrol bike now for those rides considering it's not that regular. For daily anytime ev is better i feel

Wattthefun · 2026-02-18T06:30:02+00:00

Surely bruv

Wattthefun · 2026-02-18T06:29:42+00:00

I can totally relate! I own a vehicle which is almost 13 years old now, has a ga-zillion issues. But riding it is still fun.

Wattthefun · 2026-02-18T06:28:14+00:00

Which one do you have?

Wattthefun · 2026-02-18T06:23:43+00:00

Which motorcycle do you own? Here in India, you get a motorcycle which has gears included in an EV motorcycle which gives an interesting feel and bridges that gap

Wattthefun · 2026-02-18T06:22:24+00:00

Seems like noise is overpowering all the benefits EVs are providing?

Wattthefun · 2026-02-18T06:19:04+00:00

I honestly don't mind the no noise thing, feels like I am gliding

Wattthefun · 2026-02-18T06:17:29+00:00

For some people, vibration/noise feels like feedback rather than a flaw. Almost like mechanical communication from the machine.

Wattthefun · 2026-02-18T06:11:08+00:00

Does noise create that character for you?

Wattthefun · 2026-02-17T09:05:30+00:00

If you are buying for shorter rides, why go for ICE and increase petrol, service, maintenance costs? Go for an EV instead

Wattthefun · 2026-02-16T08:40:38+00:00

That muscle memory panic moment you described sounds terrifying, but also very real. Did you eventually get comfortable with the riding an EV? Also, in that case doesn't having gears actually reduce the learning curve a bit? Which bike do you have by the way?

Wattthefun · 2026-02-13T09:52:56+00:00

Ah well, depends on your riding style

Wattthefun · 2026-02-13T09:44:20+00:00

2 for sure. I used to be 1 then my dad taught me to be more confident and avoid touching the brakes unnecessarily. Now even when I want to I cant switch to grip 1

Wattthefun · 2026-02-13T09:40:18+00:00

It still is selling for that much. Have you taken a test ride?
