Title: New Toyota Prius Prime with 44-mile electric range is out as a de facto US$32,000 EV for urban commuters

Since US drivers commute 41 miles a day on average, the 44 miles of battery-only range that Toyota picked for its new Prius Prime will practically allow the car to serve them as an electric vehicle. The 2023 Prius Prime has a 13 kWh battery pack, 6.6 seconds acceleration, and a gas-engine that consumes just 52 miles a gallon.

Sounds practical. But only a 3.5kW charger? I would have thought we'd be past that by now, even for PHEVs.

This Prius is mediocre for long trips, only about 38mpg on long trips, compare this to the 60mpg consumer reports got with the diesel Cruze
