I think more to the point these electric vehicles while all good in the major centers like Auckland etc are not so suited to All people in NZ

look at first photo..you can clearly see sheer bank on right side of car that looks to be 10-12" high and it showing out left of car too..NO WAY IN HELL that vechile would get up that bank even with no water or engine troubles... my point being,they KNEW it was dodgy and didnt even get out and wade it to see... looking to right of car there is gentler sloping gravel exit.....
and I 100% agree electric vechilles arent suited to everyone....arguably stuff all use to anyone long term if the power runs out.
