Currently in line for a supposed June delivery (April 10 reservation, Sept order), and as finally getting closer have been paying attention to this forum re: range. Blissfully thought the car got at least 70 miles in all conditions.
I commute 29 miles everyday from south OC to central OC, currently using the HOV lane in my 2006 Civic Hybrid. Rarely are speeds UNDER 75 mph. Occasionally I have some business in other offices, adding another 12-13 miles, with travel at 25-40 mph. The return trip is of course 29 miles, but usually a little more congested so speeds are 65-75.
I have a 110 plug near the back door of my main office and could trickle charge 6-8 hrs if I had to.
I have no intention of getting out of the HOV lane in order to cut down my speed.
Am I going to make it, or am I justified in getting 11th hour cold feet and where the CNG Honda is looking like a better fit?
Thanks guys.
