What’s the EV range?

I’ve never seen anything over 50 miles, but I wish some manufacturer could take a PHEV to 100 mile range and I’d snap that up in a heartbeat.

Why 100? Isn't range anxiety the reason you'd get a PHEV instead of an electric-only vehicle?

Yes, but I’d like to be able to do my daily commute full EV and that is closer to 80 miles round trip.

Then for longer trips we have the convenience of not needing to charge.

15-20 miles, but that turns out to be enough for >95% of our trips. But the best thing is that we never have range anxiety. Also, we get a full charge overnight from a regular 15A outlet.
