Is an EV a viable choice for driving through France?
I'm thinking of buying an electric car but I drive a lot in France. What is the situation with charging points and fees please?

It's certainly doable. Download the PlugShare app to find chargers, including reviews and feedback from other EV drivers. A plug-in hybrid might be a good compromise.
If you cover no more than 100 miles per day and have easy access to a charging point at home or work, then an EV is ideal for you.
