Hmmm...their range at just over 80 miles on a what looks to be a mild weather day and WITHOUT freeway driving probably cements the need for the REx as a possible replacement for my Volt. Realistically, on a much colder day with City freeway speeds (that's U.S. freeway speeds), that number could easily be around 60-62 miles of range based on what I've seen with my own car and others. Even though that easily covers my 37 miles round-trip daily commute, I find that my normal driving is about 42-45 miles per day and when I exceed that I am usually in the 65 mile area (excluding the one-off trips). That's a bit tight. Really wish BMW had bumped this up just a bit more.
