What's the point of another 300 mile range ev? It would be way more hype if they released one that had a 400 mile range. My grand Cherokee hits about 530 miles per tank. You think I want to reduce my range by 230 miles for 70k?
I think best combination would have been to have small gas engine generator to kick in just in case you can't charge it. People don't feel too comfortable with full electric cars
