As others have said above once the car moves it uses energy, that energy has to be replaced. It is a basic law of science you can put energy
in (from the petrol engine or from the mains supply in your house) but once the electric car moves you are taking energy
out.
So, unless recharged at regular intervals the car will eventually stop.

NOT believe all the adverts about range, they are deliberately misleading. The range of an EV is
much less than quoted in winter at night with heater, lights, radio, wipers etc. running but
most quote a distance in perfect conditions.
I won't be buying an EV until that one is sorted
