I bought a 2015 energi. Love it. sittingon 60K miles. no problems. battery range is now down from 22 to around 15-17
I have head that 100k miles is starting to get into the danger zone from a transmission POV
the only think I don't like about the energi is the way the batteries take up floor space. The non plugin cmax, has a nice flat floor when the seats are folded down.
OP here, thank you!

I’ve settled on a car. Two paths for a 2016 C-Max Energi (this car it fits all my needs).
83k miles for 13.5k
40k miles for 19k
Same trim, no accidents. I’m looking for something that’ll last me roughly 5 years, until EV‘s are further along. Also something my teen can drive for the next year until she goes to college.
My only concern is the battery. It’s meant to last 8-10 years but I’m sure will go till 12. So maybe it’s better to get the higher mileage car and save the money. We’re paying cash.
