darkstar will you be using your car for highway driving, in town driving or a combination of both? How many miles a day do you expect you'll drive? I'm interested to see what ranges you are getting in town at lower speeds stop and go since thats how I will be using my car. I only drive 15 to 20 miles a day usually on secondary roads like Beaverton Hillsdale and Hall blvd and I plan to hyper mile them all. My goal is to get an average range of 100 miles and to charge every 3 days. Not sure this is a realistic goal though.
This will be my daily driver to/from work, about 50 miles per day. We live in Hillsboro and I work in West Linn, so I'll be primarily be driving rush-hour traffic (average 30-45 mph) with weekend errands for grocery shopping and whatnot here in the Hillsboro/Beaverton area.
I have limited experience with hybrid driving, so learning to hypermile will be something new to me, but I'm already a lot better about going the speed limit instead of 5-10 mph over.
Otherwise, I'll be attending local events for the OEVA and probably a couple of big weekend trips this summer.
