You will be fine provided that: 1. You don't need excessive use of the HVAC, especially the heater unless. 2. There isn't a lot of precipitation on the road. 3. Temperatures are above 45F or so. I would personally do the drive in ECO mode (which also limits HVAC power if on) and drive as conservatively as possible on the way to work until you get used to the commute. I would also make sure to use a charge timer at home to have the car finish charging up at the time you normally leave so that the car doesn't spend time sitting charged at 100% unnecessarily. What year LEAF do you have? Looks like you live in Oregon? -Dave _______________________________________________ UNSUBSCRIBE: http://www.evdl.org/help/index.html#usub http://lists.evdl.org/listinfo.cgi/ev-evdl.org For EV drag racing discussion, please use NEDRA (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/NEDRA)
