We have two electric cars, a big one and a small one. The small one is “mine” and the big one is “his.” However, we both work from home so the only commute anymore is taking the kids to school. So, whenever possible, we take the little one because it’s more efficient by far. He doesn’t mind and thankfully it saves seat profiles, even if we always have to adjust the mirror.
We do the same, but opposite. We have a minivan and a smaller EV. The minivan is technically hers and the EV is mine, but it's really more what it's used for. If one of us is taking the kids somewhere (school, birthday parties, fun) we take the van. If we're running to the store, normal errands or just taking a single kid we'll use the EV.
It doesn't make sense for her to take the minivan to run to the store to pick up something small and it doesn't make sense for me to take the smaller car to bring the kids somewhere.
