I have been driving a 2022 330e since March 2022 and haven’t seen any battery degradation to date. In the NY winter I still get at least 20 miles on a full charge, in the summer 23-30.

Pros: no battery degradation, consistent range
Cons: lower range in winter

I set off to test the X5 battery to see if degradation was better or worse than my iPhone's 10% degradation over one year. We've driven 29,996 miles, 15,296.5 electric. My best all-electric range achieved was about 41 miles when new. After one year, I achieved exactly 41 all-electric miles from a full charge in ideal conditions. Zero percent degradation as measured by this test. It appears temperature and AC/heat use have much greater impacts on range than actual battery health at this stage. Results look better than expected for long term ownership and residual value.

Pros: zero degradation, better than expected
Cons: range affected by temperature

Have a Chevy Volt. The battery is only good for 22-40 miles depending on outside temp. It gets plugged in at night and costs $14-18 a month. For the past 3 years we have used less then 25 gallons of gas.

Not many cons. The car is much better on electricity than when the gas motor has to kick in. Much quieter and has a bit more throttle response so I don't like it when the battery runs out.

Pros: Much quieter, better throttle response
Cons: battery runs out

We've been driving two EVs, a 2012 Leaf since Dec2011 and a 2017 Bolt since Sept 2017.

In the Bolt we lose about 40% range at -20 and lower. Bu the range is so good to begin with its not an issue.

Pros: good range
Cons: 40% range loss
Vehicle: Chevrolet Bolt

For about a month I have owned a 2016 REx whose 60 Ah battery is supposed to get 72 miles. This week I fully charged it and have been commuting four four days without topping up. Today the REx kicked in with the trip meter at 73.3 miles. This was a mixture of city traffic jams and short bursts on the carriageway, mostly with the air con on and mostly in Comfort mode. So I'm pretty pleased.

Pros: good range, satisfactory performance
Vehicle: BMW
