Hi folks,

Just found this community and curious about what everyone is either using as a daily driver or have got their eyes on in the EV space.

I'm from Vancouver, and a few years ago my partner and I bought a new Chevrolet Volt PHEV as a "bridge" car to get us through the next while as charging infrastructure scales out. We get about 100km of electric range in the warmer times and 70km in the winter. Perfect for our needs around Vancouver, while still giving us flexibility to drive out to Whistler or Banff for our vacation roadtrips.

So what are you driving?

I'm a few days late and just discovered this community myself, but I have a Chevy Bolt. I've been driving for Uber while in nursing school, and driving an EV has easily saved me thousands of dollars on fuel costs. I'd say every fourth Uber passenger asks me about it and we end up having a convo about EVs too!
