I'll chip in with my modest experience: we've had two relatively affordable used Leafs, powered by Dale Vince's vegan football team's wind and sunshine, have made our commuting almost a joy, initially for an 80 mile round trip, now for 40 miles. Second Leaf is being mended after someone smashed into it, and we managed (after a lot of pain) to get a Peugeot e208 as a replacement hire car which is a bit smaller but has a lovely range (probably close to 200 miles). This experience makes me even more cross about the distraction and illusion of PHEV and those "self-charging" (ha bloody ha) Toyota things. Living a few miles from the nearest bus and rail routes means we have to use cars, and EVs have made this as close to tolerable as we can get.
