Sorry to disagree with everyone, it must be a Brit thing, but as a happy I-MiEV driver for about a year I want one with a bigger battery.I almost certainly do less miles than most I-MiEV'ers here and I got rid of two Honda Legends when I bought mine and haven't needed another vehicle for any journey since I bought it.But, 60-80 miles without a rapid charging infrastructure to support it won't give me the freedom to travel that I had with my Legends.The advantages of a larger battery are numerous, the batteries will last longer, the inability to sustain higher motorway speeds thus annoying others will go, I could use the extra kWh'rs to run my house off in the evening, and oh yes, a significant extra range without a significantly higher battery weight, 150-200 miles would be nice and I would be prepared to pay an extra £5,000 ish for the priviledge.
