As you might conclude, based on the number of my posts to this forum, I don't know sh*t about EV's!
But I do know this:
I've driven a Leaf, Volt, Spark, Fiat....then I made the mistake of driving an i3 at the LA Auto Show's test drive event. I certainly can't say if the car is worth the $10-$15k premium, but believe me, the specs on paper doesn't do this car justice. This car is a fantastic driver. Unbelievably quick off the line. It just felt great!
If a prospective buyer can grow to love the look, I think this car deserves serious consideration. As to whether the range (non-Rex) is the same as the Leaf, I think that remains to be seen. The car's extremely light weight has to have a major impact on range. Only real-world driving will tell in the end.
Just my 2 cents!
