Good daily driver powered by tesla for good price
 

For those who is in need of a family car soon, go check out the rav 4 ev. They are leasing for about 445 taxed with no downpayment, plus unlimited miles and 2500 cash back. Car has a 100 miles range and uses a tesla drivetrain. They are also super rare too as there are only 2600. Get one before Labor Day. Save the planet save your wallet win win. Car has a 51k Msrp, you get it for about 33k

"Save the planet"

does toyota have a good battery recycling program? or they just put it away somewhere in an underground concrete warehouse?

Drill Baby, Drill.

:rofl2:

Hard to say since less than 1% of the Prius batteries have died. Tesla rebuilds them down the street on theirs.

Plus that's the same lame argument from guys on Fox News, get some better ones

It's a valid argument though, that people always try and dodge by saying, "That's what so-and-so said, get a better rebuttal."




Besides, electric is boring. :yawn:

why so defensive? it just a question. :confused:

not like you're asked why you spent over $50K on a hyundai or something... :ugh:

Oh yeah this more personal financial tip more than political message, couldn't give a **** if it cost me nothing

oh okay... cause that SAVE THE PLANET part caught my eye, that's all. :ugh:

and a gasoline powered cheap car is probably cheaper in the long run probably, but noone asked about that.

I have to be out there in the land of fruits and nuts next week, screaming at all the smug Prius drivers. This thread reminded me how much I hate that state.

Woah.... We have vegetables too and yes we eat meat here. and we are the only state in the union that will allow you to lawfully lane split on a motorcycle :tup:

Good info too OP that is a decent deal

Keep in mind a loaded mini SUV cost about 27k. Once you add in the other costs, you basically come out the same as buying a normal SUV with benefits such as Hov pass, zero emission etc. I know some people are sensitive over their politics. My post has nothing to do with it, it's just a good deal for the pkg.

Hmmmmm I bought my new 2012 jeep grand Cherokee limited AWD fully loaded with leather, premium stereo, sun roof, Nav etc with tow package for $32K. I average 22 mpg and it tows 5000 lbs no problem. $33k toy SUV? No thanks.

Perfect for the typical nor cal socially conscious x gen couple with 1.3 children.

I want a fiat 500 convertible electric!

Electric motors have the best torque curves!

1200 miles per month, that's 200 dollars in gas. If you have chargers at work, it's free....

all electric? what is its range?

100 miles per first post.

:tiphat: not bad. not a road trip vehicle by any means, but decent work commuter.

agreed, my biggest issue with the leaf, et al is that they all have around 100 mile ranges which if you have a static commute that never varies, is great car, but if you have a job where you have different commutes etc, then it doesn't work as well. Also, you really need two cars since like you said, this isn't a road trip car.

I have both. The rav4 is so much better that you can't compare. You should only buy the leaf if you can't afford the extra 150 or you like to suffer in a little car or care about most efficiency.

For my driving, @ 80% charge I do 85% highway driving. Leads range is 50 and rav4 is 85 in same type of driving roughly. Both with ac on running fast lane speed

wait, you have a leaf AND an all electric RAV4 too?

I've test driven the leaf, actually enjoyed it more than I thought I would but the rav4 is a nicer car for sure.

Yes I was paying 200 a month in my 50 mile commute. I leased a leaf and it is paying for itself since I get free charge at home n work. Prior to it, I was doing 1800 miles in 6 weeks.

My wife got rid of her Lexus for the Toyota. It's not as comfortable, but we got enough money back to smile all the way to the bank. 51k car for 33k is crazy. We also could use the Hov permit too. This is all about financials, everything else is second.

0-60 in 7 sec is nice too
