Yes with a new battery maybe. The battery makers only guarentee that the
battery will charge to 70% once it's been used a while then they will
rent you a new one to get the mileage back up.

The battery will be the deciding factor of whether EV's ever get taken
seriously. I don't want to rent one I want to buy one and one that
lasts a while too.
