So far, so good. If you can get passed the politics of this and let if simply be a technology and convenience discussion, the only issue left is really convenience to charge.
As I've said, in 30 minutes on a level 2 charger I can get about 100 miles of range.
At home? Easy, peasy. Plug it in to my Level 2 and you get over 30 miles per hour of charging. With no real math behind it, our electric bill has gone up about $20 this month.
If they give me a decent deal/lease after retirement to pick this up, I may just do it.
For just around town, this is a really fun car to drive. Instant torque makes quick pulls to the speed limit. Low CG with that battery helps the car corner quite well. It won't satisfy and SS owner, but I'd give this a run against a 2.0T. Like I said, it's only 295 HP so it's not intended to be a super fast EV. But very usable and very fun.
