Is my commute to far for a Nissan Leaf?

Buying a car and having to drive at a moderate speed, slipstream lorrys, see if there's a charger on route and all that.

Sound like a really miserable commute.

Not for me thanks.

I don't have to do any of that. I'm at work, home is 23 miles away, my car's got 67 miles in it before I need a charge.

But yes, if your commute necessitates those things, then of course it isn't for you. Goes without saying, really.

That's my thoughts, its not just about the cash. Unless the commute distance is massively inside the real world minimum so you can behave identically. If you want to drive at 80mph with the lights, radio, heated seats and AC on it must make the cost per mile in the EV much higher than how people usually behave in them.
