How much is the electric range of the PHEV version?

Yup. Especially on that street in that neighborhood.

So he drives around most of the time with legendary, unmatched towing range, waiting for that moment when he can use it.

It’s impressive that the Cruise car actually pulls over there on Clement and gets out of the lane. Most of us human drivers on Clement don’t even bother (moving over). It’s a total mess.

How do you like the 45e?

Yeah, it’s akin to that Audi “primer grey” color that was optional a few years ago.

True, but since the average route is 20.8 miles, the mailvan won’t need that many kWh to replace whatever is consumed during the drive. They sit parked overnight, so a fleet management charging software could minimize the backend for each post office.

Pacifica plug-hybrid for the win. It can do everything for our family of three kids and a dog, but ford creeks, but that’s what our other “car” is for.

I’m with you.

Well, they are forever yours... faithfully.

When is the 4xe (PHEV) version coming with the off-road package?

Thanks for this. Why is CAFE mpg so much higher than EPA mpg? Also, what’s on the window sticker - EPA mpg?

How the outward visibility? That beltline looks awfully high. The windows look Camaro-small. How thick are the A and B pillars?

Reading these comments seems like a mixture of a lack of perspective, perfectionism, and the Amazon Prime mentality.

When is the 4xe Trailhawk version coming?

Yup. One is a Nissan dealer and the other is a Ford-Kia-Toyota dealer, so let just say one of them has a much better hand.

One of my best friends from high school as well as a cousin each have dealerships. They are good people who do a lot for the local community.

Can you see out of it? The last few new Mazdas I’ve walked by have had horrifically high beltlines and small windows. It’s hard to take their “zoom zoom” motto seriously if you can’t see the road.

Nope. Our electric bill went up $45/month. Our gasoline bill went down $320/month (PG&E and Northern California gasoline prices, six months of tracking in 2011-2012). In other words, even with insurance, it was a free car.
