I have a 2012 SL in upstate NY and I wouldn't be comfortable trying a 62 mile round trip in below freezing weather, even if I was willing to not use the heater at all. You need reliable ability to charge at work, or wait for an EV with greater range.
You can read alot here about capacity loss on this forum, but I guess the bottom line is that Nissan capacity warranty only covers loss below 70%.
IF you want to take the chance, I would definitely suggest looking at leasing, rather than purchase.
