I'd love to hear your opinions please.
I've been reading up on theses forums and think I am right at the edge of the car's capacity.
I would really appreciate your advice.
Looking to lease a 2015 S or SV for 24 or 36 months- preferably 36.
~ 74 mile commute round trip:
Each leg consists of...
8 miles at 45-60 MPH (4-5 stops along the way if I catch lights. On the ride home I will have alot of time waiting at 2 of these lights)
25 miles of 55-60 MPH back country roads (w/ 2-4 stoplights) negligible elevation changes I think,
4 miles at 35-50 (city 4-5 lights).
No charging options along the way or at work.
I'm ok with learning hyperdrive skills.
"Hot"lanta, GA: Summer Ambient ~95F Winters down to Mid 20s.
Storage Outdoors full time, limited to no shade.
Can I reliably (and comfortably) use a leaf for this commute? I'm worried about needing AC in the summer and heat/window defrost in the winter.
Will winter temps be a concern on my range?
Will it be ok the first year and a concern the second or third year after battery degradation?
Will I need to charge near 100%?
Thank you so much for your thoughts.
