I loved my Volt... Charged overnight in a normal 110 outlet got me the 43 miles to work and back (after about year 5, not quite the whole way) but I could still decide to go on a 600 mile road trip spur of the moment. Had to give up the 2014 in 2023 when a full charge wouldn't go 20 miles. ☹️
There is no PHEV comparable now, though! Made the switch back to full ICE and I hate it.
The Prius Prime isn't too different, in that it's also a compact PHEV although the battery range is a bit shorter.
I’m kind of blown away by the new Prius - it seems really good(?) ~40 mi all-electric and AWD (requirement for me in a snowy, mountainous state). It also doesn’t look awful for once.
