$700/yr. for a check up maintenance visit would be ludicrous for this type of car. Throws the "low maintenance requirements" tag right out the window. That's 6 hours of overpriced dealer labor. No car manufacturer could survive with a mass produced vehicle that requires that level of checking...

Thanks! TS's blog has some interesting stats and shows that it's a moving target. The Adapter Charge Times chart answers the M/hr. question for a full charge.
