Does anyone know how realistic this range is? You can get some absurd range from a vehicle if you're driving on a closed course at 60kmh with no air conditioning or entertainment.
Your mileage may vary.
1000km range is fucking stupid. No one should be driving that far at once, and they rest of the time you waste energy and money just carrying around thousands of pounds of batteries.
Then there is the fun of a car crash and shorting out over 120KW of energy.
How much is the average used by daily drives? What about the 90% percentile. Something like 1000km must be on the extremely tail that. The only distance I can think of 1000km is going to and back from São Paulo to Rio.
A 1000km range is a complete waste of resources.
