Has anyone found or used a reliable 'battery depletion' indicator gauge, so that they can estimate mileage capabilities.
What would be the 'average' distance expected on mainly flat roads with some slight grades, which of course would be downhills in one direction.
How low % of capacity can the batteries go, before recharge - ( occasional, and in general)
How have others managed to recover from dead batteries nowhere near a plug-in source - ie portable generator - or does the car have to be trailered or hauled on a towtruck?
Thanks,

I think I would also go for the ev performance. Any updates for this? I am still thinking for some alternatives.
