I’ve been lurking on this forum for a while but a few weeks ago I bit the bullet and bought a used 2012 i-MIEV for $10k(CDN). Had only 32,000 kms on it. Battery doesn’t seem to be degraded much, car looks like new.
So far I’m loving it. My commute is 82km daily(50 Miles I guess) and the car can do it easily. I can plug it in the garage at work too(unless the spot gets ICE’d
)
A bit worried about the range in winter given I’m in Canada. We just did a relatively short 160km road trip and I had to charge every 50km
Although some of it was fault given that I didn’t charge overnight before leaving and we had a nasty cold day. Learned the hard day that charging takes longer and more expensive ![Frown :( :(](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
But driving to work and around town doing the errands the car shines.
Still have a lot of reading to do given the amount of information here in so many threads.
But I thought I’d register and say hi![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
