The only lifestyle change I needed to make was to have my days planned out and ensure in case of needing it, there is a charging station along the way or at my destination. If you are someone who stays within a certain range of your house you can minimalize your costs even more by always charging at home. There is instant torque which is fun and took a little getting used to but useful. It helps you control your driving habits too by seeing what your range is constantly and how your driving habits change your available range.
This is a medium size car but the internal space accommodates tall people front and back. It maneuvers with ease and the ride is smooth and comfortable. The music system is impeccable. The car is secure since locks from the doors are independent from the storage area which has an open comfortable and easy to reach space.
I purchased this car with some sort of hesitation because I was uncertain that an electric car would meet my needs. Also I was afraid of end up paying a huge monthly electricity bill. It just took like 3 days to clear all my doubts. The stated range of this car is 86 miles per charge but it largely depends on your driving style. With my driving, the car will give me 80 miles per charge at the minimum when the freeway is clear and I keep 70 mph 90% of the time. With heavy traffic (most of the times) my average speed is around 50 mph in which case the car will give me between 90 and 100 miles per charge. My daily commute is 55 miles so most days the car still has 45% of the charge by end of day. I already purchased a second one.
