Pinball, you are making me jealous.. About 1/2 my miles around town are in EV mode,
but the battery charge comes from the ICE on a Prius C..

I'm going to have to trade in my old Ford Escape in, and go EV..

My 12.5KW solar array is keeping my car fueled and all my house power taken care of.
Flynns Arcade 12.560kW
(Hopefully it will cover my new mini split heat also it is so far)

I really like the BMW I3 EV that range would work for us better. I wonder what mpg it gets on the small engine?

The Prius still does pretty well.
