Got nothing against EVs in certain situations, Michael!
Couldn't resist the poke, the opportunity was too good.
Back to my original suggestion, try an eBike - it's the second best time you can have with your pants on. You don't need to outlay much in the way of $$ if you start on the bottom rung (fit a kit), you'll enjoy the ride, ride more often, the more you ride you'll gain more fitness (little by little) and perhaps shed to kg (little by little).
