This year has seen more and more electric vehicles added to the list of available options in South Africa, especially with Audi, and most recently, Mercedes-Benz adding several vehicles to their ranges.

Earlier in December, I sampled some of the new all-electric range of cars now being marketed with gusto by Mercedes-Benz in South Africa. Super impressive in many respects if you ignore the concerns about range anxiety, not to mention charging times that might occur on a holiday trip.
