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.
500 miles? I mean, that would be awesome but are you able to go that far on a tank now?
If it's all highway miles, yes, I get about 36 miles to the gallon on a 15 gallon tank. Mixed driving I get closer to 28 mpg. 2020 Chevy Malibu.
