42 minutes could mean say 40 miles. That's near the upper level limits for a round trip without recharging for older generation cars like my Leaf. The newer Leaf will make it with plenty to spare. Same with the BMW. Next generation Leaf coming up will go 200+ as well. So things are changing and costs are dirt cheap. For most of my time owning my car, I charged only at work on the weekdays. It was free. Think I've personally saved over $8K in fuel costs total. So for me, the total cost of ownership is around 27K. For an civic, I would probably be well above 30K by now. Get an electric car if you can swing it. Total savings is great!
