I knew that the Soul EV was in the pipeline, but was not sure of the lease terms, which is how I ended up with our Fiat 500e. We test drove ALL the EVs available, and decided on the 500e because it had the longest real world range short of a Tesla, was the most fun to drive, was the cheapest to buy, AND most importantly, has that flair that no other EV has. If the hamster-mobile was available at the time that we bought our Fiat 500e, it would have been a strong contender depending on how it drove. It would have been the practical winner in our book as well, since the largest non-Tesla, the Rav4 EV, stickers for $50kNow I'm tempted to drop my Lancer and pick one of these bad boys up in it's place...we might be a two EV household yet!
