My Volt has only 50 miles of range, and, granted, working from home and not traveling much, I rarely run out of charge. However, that said, there are times, especially in the winter, when I really need to charge at my destination to keep the gas motor from turning on halfway home.

Yeah this was my experience when I had one (I'd still have it but it got totaled in an accident). Another 20km - 30km of range would have been ideal. I used to drive 100km a day but that was only feasible on zero gas in the winter when I was able to charge on both ends.
