It is over a hundred miles round trip and the times of day and my shift length aren't really conducive to popping into a public charging station in either direction. Home charging is an option, but regardless I don't want <300 miles of range nor a less efficient AWD drive train if I'm paying full price for a brand new vehicle.
The 260-mile range of the Limited AWD will mean if I don't start my week at 100% or miss a charge after any one day of commuting, I run the risk of not being able to make it back home the next day especially after a few years of usage on the battery and accounting for running the AC or heater in cold weather. I'm not going to spend $60k to put myself into that position. 300 miles of range is really the bare minimum I'd be comfortable with.
