I'm in a unique position of being caregiver to my wife who is confined to a power wheelchair. She has a ramp van that she can drive her wheelchair into, transfer to the driver’s seat and be independent.
That means that my second car is for my use alone as any time she is with me we HAVE to use the van. I can easily live with a 100 mile range, as my daily commute is only 10 miles round trip, plus incidental errands.
If I were in the market for a new car, my Saturn/Opel Astra is only 16 months old with 9,000 miles, and had the infrastructure issues resolved; a new Leaf would be a perfect fit for me, even though electricity costs here are the highest in the US.
