\n EVs may be less flexible, but can your petrol car power a camping trip?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Prior riffs on batteries, camping in an EV, and the man sending 24 ambulances to Ukraine<\/p>\n

\n

Recently, I drove the Dacia Spring<\/a>, a small electric car<\/a>\u00a0with a 140-mile range when new (and warm and not on a motorway).<\/p>\n

Also last week, my munchkins climbed into a 16-year-old small car and drove 140 miles to camp at a wet music festival. When they had to stop to refuel (once, on their way home), it took them only a few minutes.<\/p>\n

Fast forward to 2040 and their equivalents might still be tooling around in a combustion-engined city car or supermini \u2013 or they could find themselves instead driving an old small electric car<\/a>, more tired and less rangy than it is today.<\/p>\n

Having such a weekend away will still be doable, of course, but it will take longer. One might stop to shop while charging on the way, maybe, rather than buying instant noodles and Jaffa Cakes the night before.<\/p>\n

The impromptu freedoms we\u2019ve taken for granted \u2013 throwing some kit into the car on a spare weekend and taking a spontaneous long trip to the Lakes or Devon or wherever \u2013 will be more daunting in an old Spring than they are now in an old Citro\u00ebn C1<\/a>. Maybe prohibitively so.<\/p>\n

I genuinely think that by 2030, we will look back at today\u2019s cutting edge and think it wasn\u2019t good enough. Not a reason to give up eradicating tailpipe emissions but enough to wish solid-state batteries, which promise double the energy density and triple the charging speed, into the mainstream as soon as possible.<\/p>\n

Because there\u2019s lots to like about the idea of heading into the sticks in an EV. Mooching down a green lane with the windows and roof down, accompanied by only birdsong, the breeze and the scrunch of tyre upon dirt, is something that I\u2019ve done in a plug-in hybrid Jeep Wrangler<\/a>, and it\u2019s really compelling.<\/p>\n

Then when you get to where you\u2019re going, you can set up shop and plug things into the car: lighting, devices, a kettle, a stove, a fridge, a tent heater on which to dry your socks.<\/p>\n

In selling the electric dream, particularly with lifestyle-oriented cars, I wonder if manufacturers make quite enough of this. It doesn\u2019t have to be the wilderness, it could be just a day out, but you can keep your sandwiches colder, your tea warmer and your feet drier.<\/p>\n

Mighty Convoy and sending ambulances to Ukraine<\/h2>\n

My friend Simon Brake, who runs Mighty Convoy, a non-profit organisation that has so far raised \u00a3160,000 to take 24 ambulances to Ukraine across seven trips, has called to say that his Ukrainian charity contacts wonder if he\u2019s able to bring 4x4s the next time Mighty Convoy drives to Lviv to donate vehicles, this October.<\/p>\n

Winter isn\u2019t far away, and extracting casualties from the front lines away from roads isn\u2019t as practicable in van-based ambulances as it would be in four-wheel-drive pick-up trucks like the Ford Ranger<\/a> and Toyota Hilux<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Mighty Convoy has great UK contacts to secure used ambulances, which get a proper once-over before making the trip across the continent so Brake is confident they\u2019re in good condition.<\/p>\n

But while he\u2019s terrific at raising dosh and organising trips, he\u2019s no expert on vehicles in general or 4x4s in particular, and in short, he doesn\u2019t know where to source good 4x4s. He doesn\u2019t think he knows enough to buy random ones at auction, so he\u2019s hoping to find someone who retails them and gives them a good once-over first.<\/p>\n

Donations enable Mighty Convoy to pay \u00a36000 to \u00a38000 per vehicle, and it pays such prices because not only do they have to reach Ukraine reliably, but they must withstand repeated hard use when they get there too.<\/p>\n

If you are or know someone who can help, drop me a note and I will put you in touch, or visit mightyconvoy.org.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n
