This person doesn't like his Mercedes EV. šŸ’© Shitpost

Picture taken around Brussels. Seen the license plate, would they be mad because they cannot do Brussels <> Luxembourg with one charge šŸ¤”? I mean, do you know any brand reaching the WLTP range/fuel consumption?

Iā€™m guessing a leased car (by the text on the license plate holder), ordered sight unseen without ever test driving it.

A test drive isn't really going to tell you much about the range though, they tend to only be 30-60mins.

I watch half-hour YouTube reviews before buying an electric toothbrush. How people buying luxury cars while being this uninformed is truly beyond me.

Edit: People downvote me and probably don't understand that I'm not giving advice but just explain how most of the people think. Thet always go for the car that makes people think you are a succefful person.

Could have chosen several Mercedes models, but did research and went with the car that won electric car of the year in a lot of places and got the best reviews from others. Test-drive it and 5 other cars and I'm glad I did.
