If you drive as little as I do the Ford Focus Plug In Electric is very satisfying to own and operate. It's easy to plug it in every night and it's great that I never have had to visit a gas station since I got the car. However if you have a longer commute than mine you might want to consider a vehicle with longer range. A lot of the technological features are beyond my ability to operate, I find many of the controls confusing.

Two days after i drove off i noticed that Ford has a new promotion on the car for another 1500 off. The car has few small kinks, mainly in the user interface for the car /app/owner.ford.com. Different features have to be modified in different locations. Setting up the value charging is not simple nor it is able to handle the complex electric Co time of use schedules. Also the "Budget" indication doesn't really make much sense as it constantly seems to change. The only thing i truly do not really like is the very small trunk space. I can put my groceries in the back seat so that was not a deal breaker for me. I appreciated having the tire inflator. We have used it already on my husband's car. It was nice a little perk. I'm still figuring out the remote charging, learning where there are charging stations, signing up for the different companies, figuring it all out. In the end it would be better if i had my own 220 charging station at home but so far with the limited daily range needs, i'm more or less able to charge up the battery adequately overnight during the better value charge times.
