Every extra 10 miles you add to the range will make the vehicle that much more useful for a wider category of drivers (in terms of staying in electric mode and avoiding burning gasoline). At some point perhaps they see it as diminishing returns, except that really when it comes to electric vehicles, the more range the better.
- Grishnakh 11y agoOh please. If the gas engine has to come on for the last couple miles of your commute, what's the problem? You're still only using a tiny amount of gas for a 54-mile commute. That's the whole point of cars like this: most of your trips fit within that range, or just barely outside it, so your overall gas usage is almost nothing.
