The US version doesn't have the same netto battery capacity as the European version. So if the price difference is not to substantial I would buy the European version.

I don't know if the on board charger it self is different. We have a Mennekes 2 plug on the car. I think the US version has a different one. Some things to think about before making your decision.

The 45e is more complex than a standard car. I wonder if homologation can be a problem.

If you import a new car (I think that is less than 6 months old). I think you will have to pay local taxes. Might be better to drive it for a couple of months and miles. Also something to look into. I don't know the import details.
