Took my Mercedes GLK350 to work and back today, averaged 12.4L/100km.
That contrasts to my Smart ED which averages 18kWh/100km over the past 6+ months of commuting.
The Smart is 1/5th the cost of the gas SUV for this short distance commute.
Meanwhile, the GLK has balls, but still can't match the way my Smart ED does the 0-60km/h "hole shot". Then again, once the Merc gets'a'rollin', whew, hold on, what a roar. Different cars for different jobs.
Wife agrees, she's already talked about having her own electric car for the city driving that is 90% of her trips.
