Ok the 41Kw battery has a real range of 190-200 miles and there's a waiting list for the 2018 model. So your example means the driver charges it after every 150mile journey reaqdy for the trip homs. Has around 25% in reserve, which is doable.
However - They've a mandatory battery hire. **Price excludes mandatory battery hire from £59 per month for the Z.E. 40 battery, based on 4,500 per annum, excess mileage will be charged at 8p/mile including VAT. You will not own the battery
So on his 300 mile daily commute, he's doing 66000 miles a year, so thats another £5k a year in battery rental alone which is 900 gallons of fuel so the cost is the same as a small petrol car with a reasonably economical engine.
No it isn't. The unlimited annual mileage option is £110 a month which includes full breakdown cover with free car hire with fuel costs reimbursed.

The person actually bought the car outright anyway. It was a top spec car but as far as I remember they paid under £20k.
