Not bad! It's also a good looking car. Someone drives one in the complex I work.
I asked from a friend of a friend who has one about mileage.
"I live in the hills north of San Francisco. My 63 mile roundtrip commute is fairly hilly which chips away a little range as the regen down hills doesn't quite make up for the cost of going uphill. Anyway, given that, if I drive like the other cars I get almost exactly 3 miles per KWH. If I pick it up a bit and/or it's raining or very cold (30F) it drops to about 2.5 miles per KWH. If I drive at 60 on a flat dry freeway I get almost 4 miles per KWH. I have the big 85 KWH battery, so 240 miles is easy. 300 miles is achievable if you keep the speed around 55."
