If I have to commute for my next job, I'd seriously consider trading in my Lexus for a Prius Prime.
 
BMW did this with the i3, a version of the upcoming Scout will do the same thing but automakers who are looking to help with range anxiety are coming out with EREVs, Extended Range EVs. It's different from hybrid as the ICE motor does not provide propulsion power but is a generator to provide electricity to the battery/motor system. So you get the driving dynamics of an electric motor (instant torque, less lag) with the benefit of more range:


They call it a REEV (I like EREV better) but just wondering what the maintenance would be. Brake wear should be like EVs but there is still the oil/lube and other ICE maintenance of a gas engine.

Dealers will love the maintenance revenue from REEVs.
