Average commute is 16 miles each way so is doable.
- ineedasername 6y agoDepends on the type of commute. Are those 25 highway miles? If so, 16 miles of slow stop-and-go traffic could push the limit. Get stuck behind a car accident for an hour and it definitely would. Hybrid though, so you'd still have gas and wouldn't be stuck.
- toast0 6y agoYou've got it wrong for hybrids. Stop and go traffic is great for range. But if you can go highway speeds because there was an accident upstream of your entrance, you'll need to use gas to get home.
- x87678r 6y agoSure that's the point. Most of the time you can rely on electric, when something unusual happens or you're doing a road trip you use gas.
