Nice story! New EV’s are almost boring already 😆 No tinkering. Taking older Leaf to -25C and for a longer road trip is a time machine to SLA era. Oh that pain with 30-40 mile range.
Not in too distant future we’ll have 1000 mile range EV’s. That’ll provide some more of that EV grin. Interesting to see what are the next things in the EVolution. First it was the silence and acceleration and easy to drive. Next it seemed to be iPad on the wheels and now AC output for casual power needs. Self driving has been coming for years. Any thoughts what’s next to grin about? -Jukka pe 7.7.2023 klo 8.12 Seth Rothenberg via EV <ev@lists.evdl.org> kirjoitti: > Hello EVDLrs. > > After 7 years of lots of grins and a few pouts, > we decided it's time for another EV. > > The Leaf was borderline adequate for my 60+ mile commute, > but required a small additional boost when traffic forced me to go the long > way. > Then Covid hit and I went to 99.9% remote. > > Visits to my brother at 150 miles round trip were really hard in the Leaf. > In 7 years, one of those dozens of trips led to a tow for the last mile. > > Then my wife's ICE car started (continued) to fall apart. > > We bought a 2021 Kona EV.
