With its inception in the 90’s the EV was designed as a commuter vehicle. With a range of up to 150 miles.
It’s not for everyone.
Give a choice I’ll take a hybrid over an EV.
My first hybrid purchased in 2008 sold it to my neighbor up north with 150,000 miles in 2013. He’s still driving it today with over 275,000 miles original batteries he claims still getting 50 mpg commuting to and from work.
