Not exactly an answer to your specific question, but I’ll add my input anyway. I have had a 2018 Hyundai Ioniq for two years. I bought it a year old as a repair loaner with a new car warranty for about ten thousand under sticker. The new car warranty includes replacement batteries for life. I get 51-52 miles per gallon average driving and in TV I get 54 mpg. On trips to and from TV and Kansas City I get about 46 mpg as I drive a little faster than is economically advantageous. I average about 16,000 miles per year. The Ioniq is a hatchback which provides lots of cargo space and is comfortable for 4-5 occupants. Ioniqs are hard to find as for some reason they are not releasing many to the US market, but if you can snag one I don’t think you’ll be sorry. I
