I don't understand, its not a good car now that they can't go in the bus lane?
I've often thought an electric would be a good option for my wife. She only
goes about 40 miles a day most days and that is in 4 separate trips. A charging
station at work would solve most longer trip days too. A Zip Car option (which
of course we don't have) would complete all possible scenarios.

Have a friend who bought a Nissan Leaf (all electric) for his wife to drive
to work because electrics were allowed in the bus lanes. Everything was
fine, great mileage, faster commute trip, no problems until the local
authorities barred electrics from the bus lane.
Car never made it to work and back after that. Last I heard he and a few
other electric car drivers were petitioning the county to let them "charge
up"
while at work where county electric vehicles charged up.
