    EV opposition in the media is ramping up

    There is 'some' truth in that. My son gets travel sickness and the EVs with harder suspension really affect him, which is why I test drove so many EVs :) really, no other reason . . . In the Polestar we didn't get far but the MG5 he's fine in. So 'some' truth that probably also applies to...
