The average American drives 40 miles per day. A car with 150 mile range gives the average American 3 days of driving while keep 10% <= battery charge <= 90%. That's not bad! The average EV consumes 34.6 kWh per 100 miles, so a 52 kWh battery is sufficient, on average. The average home charger provides 7.2 kWh so it'll take under six hours to recharge the car at home. You can do it at night when favorable rates are available. It'll add an extra 72 kWh hours to your utility bill for the month. Even in the most expensive part of the country (USA), the Northeast, you're only going to pay $1 per day. And I could get it for under $20K? Sign me up! If BYD/Toyota could bring such a car to the American market then it's game over for the compact and subcompact market.
