it depends as well on what journies you are doing on a regular basis the i3 has a 160ish mile range, you get a home charger as part of the deal. but if your travelling long distances you are going to have to charge on route so planning will become key. for me the longest single journey i make is 120 miles or there abouts to relatives so i can then charge overnight with the mains trickle charger and then get back home. and my other journies are within the single charge range so in sept when my lease ends i will be considering the i3 as an option.just need to sort the ap. otherwise its going to be a couple of years i suspect until they get the range up to something that will remove that anxiety.
