Good range, shows drivetrain is important.

So range is around 230 miles.

I like how the vehicle looks. My guess is it would be comfortable to drive (good seating, open interior). I'll certainly check it out when they become available. I think it'd be a great local-use EV. I'd use our MY for any distance travel.

The good thing is this LWB will have 111 Kwh battery.
