    Seriously doubt that, honestly, unless you’re VERY rural and/or cannot charge at home

    I drive 45 miles each way for commute to work in a 2018 EV that has half the range a modern one does.

    I make it home with plenty of charge to still get around town for groceries or what have you, and if I go more than 130-150 miles in a day I can stop at a quick charger for 10/15 minutes and have ~50 miles more range to play with

      I live in the Kootenays Canada. We don’t have charging stations in most of the villages. The very cold winters wreck havok on these machines even without blasting the heater.
