    Hi, I have been a Focus EV owner since last February, and have been seeing a big drop in range since its been cold. In the cold weather I have seen at least a 20% drop in range, what are others seeing? It seems to be related to the heater, when I turn off the heater range returns to a...

    Has anyone successfully gotten a lease?

    I am trying to work out a long distance deal as there are no Focus EVs available in Texas yet. Every dealer I have started negotiating with has told me that Ford does not do a lease on the Focus EV. Is that true? Thanks for any help.
