125 miles disqualifies pretty much every EV that isn't a Bolt or Tesla (unless you're fine with/able to stop and charge along the way). If you want a plug, a plugin hybrid like the Volt or Prius plugin might be better.

Here's my gen2 Prius. The split window takes a bit to get used to, but the upper window alone gives a better view than most newer cars.


The window fills the width of the mirror, camera didn't want to capture that.
