We have a lot of Ev's in the Portland OR area, the prior gen Leafs are piling up at both the big Nissan dealers, folks that are just finishing their 3 year lease are being offered the ability to buy them out at between 5500 and 6500 bucks..

I have a Honda Fit EV with a 80mile battery (at 72F) and for my 20 mile round trip commute its fine. I also only have level 2 charging, and I find it totally adequate, 2.5 hours to recharge from dead seems to work out for it being a strictly second car.. Especially since I seldom run it below 30% charge..
