Interesting approach, but with several problems:
Words matter. We're not actually discussing "drivability," which implies
things like handling/steering, acceleration, braking, cornering and
such, NOT minutes moving forward per minute charged. Saying a car has a
low "drivability" number will c

A couple of relevant data points:
-Biden recently publicly credited Tesla as America's leading EV
manufacturer. Yes, it took a while, but that talking point is over.
Meanwhile we'll see if Ford, VW, GM, Hyundai, Kia, Nissan and others can

Another option, which has been useful for us, is to use the LEAF's

To be sure (as Willie so often reminds us in many LEAF threads),

But to claim the LEAF was immediately "abandoned" as a product wo
To contrast with Willie's oft reported and unfortunately terrible
experience with his early model, our 2013 SV LEAF has been a good
investment and overall reliable car. LEAFs had some upgrades that year
including a battery percentage display, charge connector lighting, heat

I read somewhere that Toyota may have been reacting to the US

cancelled by Bush Jr.
Thanks for the info about the Tesla thermal management relating

The 2011 Leaf, basically Leaf 1.0, didn't have the cold weather features
that were added in 2013.
