Hello fellow forists, we (2 parents 1 toddler) are thinking of setting up our fleet more environmentally friendly – i.e. electric(er) -. A solar system would make our landlord on the roof if necessary and sell us the electricity. A discussion whether electric vehicles “really environmentally friendly are I don’t want to start here! I also like the quietness and the quick response of the electric vehicle. Currently we drive a C-Class Diesel Kombi from 2013 with 150tkm – actually a pra Ktic family carriage. A little bit into the years but still very fit. We drive in the year about 15tkm. 2/3 of it in everyday life. Mostly shorter distances (shopping etc. max 50km radius). 1/3 of it family visits and holidays, therefore larger distances (relative lives 500km away). For the long distance is actually only a Tesla in question (charge infrastructure, battery capacity), and from the budget goes a new model 3 (SR+,RWD) just like that. alternatively, I thought about keeping the Mercedes for the long distances and getting a used i3 (60Ah) for the everyday rides. Of the costs this option would be about 100 a month cheaper. Since I like to drive a car and like to drive well motorized, I am not convinced of a ZOE, which would be significantly cheaper than the i3. But I have not yet driven to the test, the i3 already. How would you decide? Is there something to consider with the meanwhile rec Has the first i3 come to an end? How large is its realistic reach if they have so 5 years / 50tkm down? Do you have any other comments or constructive suggestions? Thank you, Albert
