What kind of mileage do you get? I have around 4,000 miles on the car now and I have 39 MPG average. I just took a longer trip (1,600 miles total) and averaged 27.5 mpg for the trip. A good deal of my other driving is shorter regional trips which are too far for a bike to be practical. I average around 60 MPG, having the 42 miles of range on the battery helps.

Agree with you on the cargo space. My previous car is an Outback and has just as much usable space as this car, which is a larger vehicle. The main reason I got this car is I wanted a plug-in hybrid and it was the one that met my requirements and was available.

A station wagon is a great form factor for me. Plenty of room inside the vehicle and lower to the ground so it's easy to put stuff on the roof rack. Unfortunate that no one is really making them.
