very cool.Did I mention that it drives great in the snow The only downside is that the car is so new they do not have a lot of available accessories or aftermarket parts available. The stock Mopar side boards are of poor quality and the Mopar Cross Bars add 5 inches to your clearance height, which means with even a low profile ski box you are over 7 feet. On the plus side the car auto detects the temperature when you get in and will automatically turn on the seat warmers and heated steering wheel along with the heater to warm up the car.
Pure gas MPG is 24 but you have to force the car into that mode and quite frankly that makes no sense as you lose the power of your electric motor. In Hybrid mode it will mostly deplete the battery and on pure EV mode it only use the battery for about 26 real world miles. All in all this car is sipping gas at a much slower rate than our Rav4 hybrid which gets 41MPG.
If you do get one see if you can find a model with the Tech package, we didn't and that is our one regret.
I took a look and was a bit surprised it's a 2L engine. I guess after thinking it's not surprising but my mind was more thinking of a Prius type electric generator.
I may have to get out and physically look at the hybrid verses standard to see the differences. Its intriguing. I'd reserved myself to no EV but maybe a Hybrid type simple due to lack of charging in my midwest area and the long miles I put on for fairly regular trips.
