Gee whiz, I’m so excited over this I’m going to run out and get a couple more covid boosters.
What does covid have to do with the world’s largest and leading electric drivetrain maker releasing to the wild next generation technology? I’m not making the connection?
Having a vehicle that can use grid power at a couple of cents per mile vs gasoline in the 14 to 20 cents per mile range for every trip one makes except for one or two trips per year is money in the bank. A 30K 5 pass sedan with specs like this would sell out in the USA. The 4C charge is just a bonus it’s the 200+ mile range before going to the gas extender that matters. Most if not all Americans drive under 40 miles per day so really a 100 mile plug in would cover 99% of all the miles driven per year. It arguably makes more sense to have a rental genset that is modular you rent it for the long weekend road trip or the two week annual time off from being a wage slave and a 9-5 commute 5 days a week. Which is 37 miles or under for 96% of all Americans per the DOT who keeps track of that.
