Love this car to pieces. It's our second one. We got it again after the original lease ran out, because my wife refused to get a different car, even after trying out the e-Golf, Leaf, and Model III. Cons: Rides a little high, and can get wobbly on fast bumpy corners....but it's not a sports car, so don't do that. No fast charging, so know that when you get it. It's a city car, and the range is appropriate for 98% of our driving. Front wheel drive + electric torque means you go through a lot of tires. Pros: Range can be much better than advertised (87 miles). We've gotten 120+ miles on a charge. You need to work for it though. Looks: outside is incognito styling (understated), inside it's the prettiest interior I've seen in a long time. Great place to be. Silence: it's so quiet inside, I drive without music to enjoy the peace. Space: rear seats easily handle my 6'2 self with leg and headroom to spare. Can't say that in any of its competition, and this is a compact hatchback. Maintenance costs: almost zero. We paid for a filter....that's it. Zippy: pops through traffic Self-park is a great party trick. MB-tex seating material is indestructible, and super cleanable. We have the white interior, a young kid and a dog. Damp rag, and they sparkle again.

This is NOT a car for LA driving!
This is NOT a car for LA Driving! Buyers BEWARE! My Mom has this car and it is NOT for LA. Unless you ONLY drive to the grocery store locally and back - there is NO WAY that a person can safely drive 60 miles on the electric charge(which is almost 15 hours to charge on a normal charge)! My family were DANGEROUSLY stuck on the highway near midnight, DownTown LA as this car does not have the capacity to charge quickly enough for living in LA!
