~93 miles. I would argue probably too much. Most people are traveling <30 miles/day in US. Probably a whole lot less in JP. That's why most PHEVs are 30-40 mi.

E: I speak in statistical facts and everyone tells me I'm wrong bc their anecdotes 🤷

    It could have the benefit of being usable for longer as batteries degrade, especially if you can cap the charging to 80% or something to slow down wear.

    Would be great for me. Right now I wouldn’t even average one day a year of 93 miles but once a week I do about 40 miles and once a week about 60 miles. I’d do more weekend trips with this and my cars almost 15 years old now so this would be up my alley in the future

    I would LOVE to have 150km plugin range, my daily round trip is around that, which would mean I would basically never need to use gas, even when it hits -30C (I can slow charge at work so range loss wouldn't be an issue at that range).

    Honestly, I would love a full electric with a 700km range even more, since that would mean I could do day trips shopping/take the car camping without getting range anxiety.
