Yeah, the cold definitely takes a toll, but I’m still happy with the efficiency, even with the range drop, it’s way better than running purely on gas.

Being able to work on your own Jeep is a big deal, have you ever looked into hybrid or plug-in options, or is it all gas or nothing for you?

Jeep’s past electrical issues make people hesitant, sadly

The aftermarket EV conversions could gain momentum, a compact off-road EV like the Jimny would be great.

With a mild 60 degree day, I managed a solid 25 miles on pure electric, I am pretty thrilled with that! When temps dip to 30 or below, the range definitely shrinks, but that’s just part of the game. Considering electricity costs, my EV mode is still averaging about 40 MPG. Honestly, that’s...

I love the idea, but I’m waiting to see real-world performance. Until then, my trusty manual Wrangler stays, it’s too fun to give up.

Well said! More range would be great, but PHEVs already offer a nice balance. Subsidies help progress, and cleaner air benefits everyone in the long run.

EVs will increase demand, but smarter grids and renewable energy can help balance costs. Charging overnight or using solar could also keep bills manageable.

Jeep is awesome, but I’m not ready to dive in just yet. I’ll consider an electric Wrangler, but only after it proves itself. Until then, my 2019 manual 2-door soft top stays. I plan to keep it for years
