Mine at 100% charge gets 175 miles of range (don't turn on the climate because that knocks it down to 160 miles), dealer says they are working on a fix. But won't look at the car.

You may want to look at the Hyundai Ioniq 6. Rated for 360 mile range on a 100% charge, and Hyundai's been doing $7,500 cashback to offset the ineligibility for federal credits. And if you're really lucky, your state won't charge sales tax—NJ didn't for mine.

Too bad insurance on this would be another $200

Quote from leeterbike :
Could you imagine if EV owners bashed ICE vehicle owners the way they bash EV owners? I'm a car enthusiast, I have a Porsche and a Corvette Z06, I also have a Tesla model S, and anytime I brag about the Tesla, people judge and paint me in a light of tree hugging environmentalist and (insert whatever political party).

What's the big deal about someone who likes alternative energy? Why do people care about EV's so much when they have ZERO effect on them? Most people have not even tried them before criticizing them and banishing them the deepest depths of hello.

My GT500 would only get about 170 miles of range on a full tank. I never, in over 20k miles, drove it from full to empty on any day.

I best most people cant recall a day they pulled out of their garage with a full tank and had to fill it up before returning.

EV drivers are car people too. Try one before being so critical.

Quote from norcal007 :
tell that to Hertz as Tesla was the last ones on the lots with most people not wanting to rent one. And then there is the expensive parts and insurance. Expensive car and no spare tire..lol.
That's because an EV rental car is dumb. 99% of car rental usage is for travel. That is a terrible use case for an EV, that's when you feel the [only] major drawback of the EV. Around town where you live and can plug in at home, you can drive every day without ever having to consider "filling up".
Hertz invested big in EVs when EVs were a hot commodity; they were basically exotic cars and people couldn't wait to rent one. But the novelty wore off quick, and hertz should have sold their tesla fleet then. Nobody said the rental car businesses were very in touch with reality.
On the flip side, for those who have a personal EV, they're saving THOUSANDS of dollars a year in gas and maintenance.

Not a good car. It's okay for city drive on lease. But I recommend getting Hyundai on lease. Ionic 6 is $250 and a lot better vehicle.

It could be a clean burning natty gas turbine plant.
It could be a clean burning Nuke plant.
It could be a hyro dam.
It could be a wind farm.
It could be a solar farm.

Any yes it could be a coal fired plant.

I could care less about co2 emissions, thats literally just plant food.

Until they make an EV which fully recharges in 15-20 mins (this is the time taken to refill gas, use the restroom and grab something to munch on while I'm on long trips) I'll be avoiding these for now. As it stands, Toyota's hydrogen engines look more promising.
How often are you going to chargers though? You can make a case if you live in an apartment complex or something that doesn't have it but I never go to a gas station anymore or charging station really unless I'm traveling long distance which is about 3 to 4 times a year and the bathroom break gets me to about 70%. If you stop for a meal it's full

Most of the Hertz were rented weekly and used by 1 person for ubbers. They were not used for "after the airplane ride" or rentals for car repair etc.

You made tons of money ubbering and supercharging to 80% over and over.

Some of it is. Increasingly less of it each year is though.

And burning those fuels at a power plant to make electricity is still much more efficient than burning it in individual ICEs.


Quote from joon82 :
Also having one or more cars charging in same station drops your rate by half..
For Tesla at least that hasn't been true in at least 5 years (V3 superchargers which came out in early 2019 and are the vast majority of all such chargers now got rid of the shared pairs thing)

Quote from Tesla press release from early 2019 on V3 chargers :
Supercharger stations with V3's new power electronics are designed to enable any owner to charge at the full power their battery can take – no more splitting power with a vehicle in the stall next to you.

Quote from wherestheanykey :
You can blame Tesla for not having some form of that yet.

They've ruined any possibility at any kind of EV standardization, starting with their chargers and battery designs that are part of the chassis (take a look at a disassembly video and you'll see that this would be impossible to do with a Tesla).

On a broader scale, the charging aspect isn't necessarily the issue. It's more of a case of not having an infrastructure that was in any way forward thinking.

I mean, you have homes built all the way into the 80s that aren't even pre-wired to support electric stoves and dryers, let alone a 3-phase charger.

In order to have a battery swap station, you're still going to have to have infrastructure that can charge the batteries. You'd also have to figure out what an appropriate duty cycle looks like, as current battery technology doesn't hold up when placed on constant charge (this could be as simple as "calling ahead" to reserve a battery, but we don't even have cell service built up enough to support this).

Another argument that now seems reasonable after all the catalytic converter thefts we've seen is how do you prevent your EV battery from getting stolen while simultaneously making it easy enough to swap?
I can't remember any house I have ever been in where the power supplied from the street was three phase.
I guess there are some out there.

I reserved this car in past and decided not to buy it after test drive. If I had bought it, I might be the first one to buy in state of AZ. Thank God I didn't bought it.
I live in Arizona as well I can't imagine this thing doing very well in the summertime with the AC on full blast.

Quote from BabyBubba :
I appreciate you sharing your opinions as well, and time will tell which of us is right. One thing is certain; it will be an interesting year for the US auto market. Something I didn't mention earlier is that manufacturers have thousands of new vehicles that dealers won't take because they can't sell what they have now. All of their pricing shenanigans may have worked if interest rates had stayed low, but now we are in a full-on affordability crisis. That's probably excluding 20% or so of potential new buyers from the market completely, which compounds the problem of oversupply.
Oh, yes. If you look, for example, at all the Sentras & Corollas "in transit" to dealer lots (and shown as such on manufacturers' sites when check inventory), there are scads in the pipeline. I got an email from Ford this week offering me $2500. (in addition to all other incentives) as a former F-150 purchaser (and GM offering mucho truck incentives). No doubt, big markdowns will be forthcoming on those expensive trucks. say. from $50K & upwards. I have been looking/making offers since last fall, watching inventory, watching list prices ratchet up in so, so many vehicles. Maverick I built late last year was something short of $28K; now, it's just shy of $30K, 6 months later. As you say, it will be interesting, and most likely fun if you have cash (& I have) & actively looking to buy & ain't overly choosy about make. I wish you well.

Where's that from or do they somehow vary?
Like same msrp and each dealer has different shit fees, even though it's national offer?!
MN offers $2500 ev credit makes this even slicker, but closest IL dealer with stock has crappy lease
https://www.zeiglersubaruoflafaye.../index.html

Would you even get the credit since this is a lease. You won't get the federal credit for the lease. The leasing company is the owner of the vehicle so they would get the credit unless there is special language in the MN credit. That credit might also only apply if bought in MN.

Great deal for sure but I heard issues with their DC fast charging make it so it won't be able to go long distances. Something like lowering the charge rate after it's been DC fast charged 2x or so times in a 24hr period. I read this a while back so maybe it's different now but something to look out for if you are in the market.
That sucks. I'd max the distance on this thing every 1-2 days.

$241 use it as a daily communter car instead of my lifted 4Runner with off-road tries that cost me almost that much in gas alone…
