Why aren't people buying electric cars in Ireland?

Despite growing availability, falling prices and more charging points than before, electric vehicles continue to be outsold by petrol/ diesel cars at a rate of 6 to 1, according to data from Motorcheck.

The data showed that electric car sales between January and September of this year rose, with a 100% jump in sales year-on-year. However, only 3,408 electric vehicles were sold in that period.
