    I drive about 90 miles in a regular work day, up to 150miles to 250miles at least once a week throughout the summer.

    I would maybe feel comfortable once the ranges reach double that to make sure I can get there and back if I don’t quite have a full charge, so 500 miles is probably my minimum requirement just so I can do my job.

      You don’t need all the extra range if you have charging network coverage to bail you out, though. If you could just stop for 20 minutes and add two hundred miles whenever you needed to, then you only need the range to cover your regular travel. 350 miles should be fine.

        My company probably won’t be a fan of paying for me to sit around for 20 minutes waiting for a charge when I should be working

          I can’t imagine twenty minutes once a week being a huge deal.
