Depends on their usage pattern, I would think - and whether one has the capacity for overnight charging at home. Although I agree that 150 miles is too low for a car that one wishes to go on tours with, a car with 150 mile range would be easily enough to cope with all our non-Morgan driving over the last few years. IIRC the average daily use for a car in the UK is only around 30 miles or so. I suspect that a significant proportion of Morgans don't actually do very high daily mileages. Most of them (mine included) don't do significant annual mileages either, so maybe it's an attractive option for some.

There will always be travelling salespeople types who have to do galactic mileages, but as working and travel patterns change I would think that for very many people an EV would be perfectly adequate for their needs. Plus of course the latest generation of EVs are giving much higher mileages, I believe the Mustang EV claims nearly 400 miles of range.
