Update. its official, I hate the head unit/nav system in the car.. Other than that so far so good.

I put about 25 miles a day on the car, since I use typically less than 30% of the charge to do that, my charge/recovery time is about an hour when I get home. So once I get home, the time to get my stuff packed in, wait for wife, kid etc, eat dinner, the car is back up to 100%.

Its interesting using an electric car when you live on pretty much the highest area of your city so its downhill everywhere for the house and uphill to get home. Getting use dot judging how to maximize the recovery charging is keeping me amused on my commute. Love the 1 foot driving mode with the braking turned on, in rush hour I almost never brake..
