Yep. Europe will be on the cutting edge of this out of necessity. For smaller vehicles electric is nice because you can fuel at home in your driveway. And it’s relatively cheap compared to gas.

Electric works well for some and your compact RV setup is cool. Ignoring the fact that our 200A panel is full with no room for another 240 volt breaker (yes we have solar) and 120 volt charging may be too slow, we have been known to do 450 mile one-day drives into winter storm warnings to ski areas. Hydrogen FCEVs don’t have range loss in cold weather unlike BEVs and create waste heat for cabin heating. I couldn’t see doing that drive in a BEV. So having clean vehicle choice is good.
