I drive a Leaf, and it's been honestly amazing. It's a fun spirited drive.
I can tell you that there are real savings to be had. We are saving about ~200$+ a month in gas, or back of the envelope math is every 10km is a dollar saved, and on top of that are the savings due to fewer and less expensive maintenances (no coolant, timing belts, exhaust, half the wear on brakes, etc).
Also, Jeeps are coming out with a Wrangler - 4Xe PHEV with enough range that would cover my daily commute, which is very tempting.
