Summer temps can get to around 100 for a few weeks......winters can gets to 35-45. Im thinking this would not be a smart car to buy in this climate, but i love the idea of getting a $12k car and saving $130 a month on gas compared to my ICE car ($2 a gallon now, 22mpg). Over 5 years thats about $8k in gas savings, making the cost of the car essentially $4k over 5 years. But its not worth it if I'm gonna regularly be stranded on the side of the road in the cold winter days on my way home from work.
BTW my commute is to work and i intend to instal a 240 at work so i can charge there. Im just worried about making the 40 mile trip each way on a cold day with a car that has or will have some battery degradation due to the hot summers.
