My views exactly. Including the wait for the Tesla......
BTW, all of issues stated above are common to the i3, not just the BEV......

You have to be a fanatic.....

Depends on which part of the country/continent. There is no DC fast charge for i3 in BC or WA. The nearest one is in Portland, OR.
Even BC Hydro's Powertech test lab in Surrey still doesn't have a CCS test unit.
Dunno. You tell me why you paid for something it seems you can't use? Caveat emptor.barrychan said:you are right, the fast charger i thought is not for our car, it has a hugh adaptor, sooo why we paid like 750.00 for it and no charger????
