I love - beyond love - my i3. The range is just not a problem. Even my older model can do 60-70 miles (depending on temp - plus 2x on the range extender should I need it). So it's easy for me to do my 30 miles commute plus the occasional chore. Overnight it charges about 50 miles on a 110V level 1 charger (the kind that comes free with the car) so even if I forget to plug it in one night I'm still good. The market for this is as a second car for commutes of up to 30-40 miles each way. Double if your work place has a level 2 charger. Add 30-50% for the newer models. I'm willing to guess that covers, what, 75% of two car households? Range is just not a problem. It's also a pretty cheap car for the quality level. Mine was $20K, more then 50% off the $56K on the sticker, off a 10K lease with 2 years left on the warranty. Hardly used. There was a whole line of these off lease cars at the dealer. He preferred to sell gas vehicles - no need to talk about range. I didn't mention the quietness, acceleration, build quality, low maintenance, etc. As you can tell I've become a bit of a bore about them and got two friends to buy one. If I have to drive my wife's SUV now I feel dirty.
