We are fairly low miles also with most of our trips being local. Why I love our Volt. All local miles are electric. Distance driving is on the ICE where it gets a chance to fully warm up.
Two neighbors were senior executives for a chemical company. Their office was a couple of miles from our homes. One drove a 500-h.p. BMW M6 convertible. The other had an Audi A8L, but got a Volt after that. Said it was great for his commute.
