but how long is your commute? If I was to commute into my office it’d be around 42-50 miles round trip depending on which way I go. I’d plug in when I get home, and I’d literally never need to stop at a charging station. If I needed to travel more, I could simply charge while working at the office (plenty of L2 chargers in downtown denver parking garages). I think you’d have to have a round trip commute of over a hundred miles for it to be a problem, even then, you’d visit the charging station, sit there for 10 minutes, maybe less, and be ready to go for the next week.
It is over a hundred miles round trip and the times of day and my shift length aren’t really conducive to popping into a public charging station in either direction. Home charging is an option, but regardless I don’t want <300 miles of range nor a less efficient AWD drive train if I’m paying full price for a brand new vehicle.
The 260-mile range of the Limited AWD will mean if I don’t start my week at 100% or miss a charge after any one day of commuting, I run the risk of not being able to make it back home the next day especially after a few years of usage on the battery and accounting for running the AC or heater in cold weather. I’m not going to spend $60k to put myself into that position. 300 miles of range is really the bare minimum I’d be comfortable with.
