It's been a long wait for the days to warm up as summer gets closer. Hoping for no more freezing days this spring I changed summer tires.
The car has worked great! No brakedowns and the only maintainance has been keeping the tire pressures high to keep the rolling friction low.
Corollaefx has now done 3900 km electrically and it saves me about 100€/month compared to a gasoline driven 2002 Ford Mondeo that I used to drive. These savings are based on calculating gasoline vs. electricity cost and smaller insurance and tax costs.
The co2 emissions have most likely dropped only to a fraction of the Mondeo's 185 g/km as most of the battery charging is done at the moment at home using hydropower purchased from Suomen Energiayhtiö.
