    Right, I get the appeal, but EVs still seem to be a heavily urban-biased market. I’m in a major city and Tesla owners had issues charging their cars in the winter because the chargers or cars (forgot which) were simply too cold.

      I definitely agree with this, but it’s also why I want a PHEV - More complicated, sure, but best of both worlds. Or possibly the worst, I dont know.
