With the expansion of the villages in years to come I am sure I will want to go to various locations and I am not sure about battery life and would feel more confident if I knew there were charging stations by the rec centers or shopping centers.
You will smell gas once in a while and probably all the time in tunnels. If this is a serious problem I would look for a smaller community. My guess is you can go about 40 miles on electric. Maybe you could drive for 2 hours. I would also look for an electric cart that had the charge on board so you just needed to plug into an electrical outlet.
