You are right about shorter range in the winter, but it is usually still sufficient for the daily commute, so nothing to worry about.
In Norway it is cheaper to both buy and drive an electric car than a regular car.

I'm joking I'm not buying a Mustang I'll stay with my two 2015 BMW's. I would find it very hard to buy such an inferrer tin can from Ford. I was behind a 2.3 Mustang last week and the sound was like listing to rattling tin cans and the build quietly of these Mustangs are not great. The V8 will depresate fast as they are really thirsty.
BMW i3 has a lot of changes coming next year with double the battery milage and undated petrol engine hopefully with a bigger petrol tank so they might be usable. The i3 is very expensive 3% deaer than a M135i 8 speed loaded.
We have no subsidies on any type of car and this is the way it should be.
