I don't know what to suggest. I bought the RXV new in the fall of 2008 and have been pleased with it since. It is as fast or faster than most other makes as it comes from the factory and does not slow down going up hills.
The original state of charge meter was staying on full forever and then suddenly dropping rapidly once the charge was nearly depleted. That was replaced a year ago and now gives a reasonable reading on charge from full to empty. The headlights were originally set up to draw from one of the batteries so night driving quickly led to an imbalance between the batteries which seemed to reduce distance significantly. It now has a voltage converter which draws from the full set of the batteries and provides 12v to the lights.
I've also added an odometer to help me calibrate how far I have left on a charge. I still get somewhere over 40 miles on a charge although they advertise 60 - which I doubt anyone really gets.
