I own a BMW i3 Rex (range extender) so it has a little back up petrol engine.
Full charge on electric in esp my is 141 miles - plus 100 miles in the back up petrol.
I charge off the granny brick charger at night and see no real need for a fitted charger at present
Real life......
The cold weather does knock the range bit not as much as you’d think as you can pre warm the battery from the app - also you tend to drive at about 60 everywhere on motorways and duels with no inconvenience for the economy
The petrol back up is real handy and always stops any squeaky bum - but if you have a little commute like yours just top up each night with no issues
The best bit.... huge fuel savings snd I mean HUGE
Speed - I can per all over an m4 or a golf R from the lights if I want - it’s rare I bother
I doubt I’ll go back to non electric - bit will look at a car with longer range next time that’s all as I’m lazy on charging!
Hyundai and Kia have some decent offerings - the Pug seems quite acceptable for what you want too
Don’t get mugged off by the doom and gloom brigade telling you there aren’t any chargers etc etc - you don’t really need them in your scenario - zap map will show you where they are near you - and more and more are popping up all over
I hope it helps
