@devmach-e
I like your comparison as my wife's car is a Prius.
The longest road trip we will be taking is to disney which is 173 miles door to door and we already usually make a stop at one of the rest areas each way already - so I figured we'd just plugin while we are there.
It's also amazing what 4 months of waiting will do to perspective.
As mentioned whichever EV I end up with it is a replacing a Honda Accord - which gets 30-50 miles per day.
When I started looking at EVs back in March/April as I knew it was going to be a wait to get one....
I knew I didn't want the leaf / smaller VW as I wanted something with more than 100 mile range. I wasn't looking for a specific brand / style. I also wasn't factoring the tax rebate into the looking at this.
I was turned off by the Chevy at the time due to the battery issues being reported - at the time the HVBJB issues weren't being reported on the MME yet.
Doing the same search today just based on price if the cars were on the lot I would say I would go with the Chevy - but based on range / value it would be a tossup.
Chevy Bolt EUV Premier - No "self drive" / No Sunroof vs
Ford Mustang Mach-E Select AWD SR - No Tech Package
Based on these 2 two while there are difference like FWD vs RWD and width/length other features do make it as close a comparison as I can get.
The Chevy dealer is calling me back today to let me know when the system might even accept the order. Apparently their system works in a way where they can submit the order - but until the dealer has allocation the system won't even start processing the order.
