Americans don't buy cars based on their daily round trip miles. They make their choice so they can go over the river and thru the woods to grandmother's house even if grandma lives 500 miles away. but thanks for agreeing that for most people the electric car is a toy and not an only vehicle that the family can live with, therefore it becomes a second vehicle, just as a motorcycle is nearly always a 2nd vehicle even though you can use it to drive your daily commute everyday of the year.
