      If it had a reliable 500 miles between charge, plus minus 50 mi depending on drive, I would be fine with it. My primary complaint with EVs is that right now they don’t have the distance to make me happy with them.

      I want to be able to get into a vehicle and drive for 6 hours straight without a charge reliably for the life of the vehicle.

      I won’t do that very often, but it’s still something that is a make or break option for me.

        I’m curious what your current vehicle is and what the range is?

          In between 350 and 550 miles per tank depending on how I’m driving it (city vs hwy).

          It’s a 2020 Chevy Malibu premiere.

      Any reason why? I’m more than willing to buy an ev if it is reliable. Though I would prefer if it was just like a standard car but with an electric motor in it vs a smart car.
