Right, but those people would then get their EV, go for a 20km drive in bad EV conditions, see their range decrease by 30km, and call the manufacturer a liar. Been there, done that. Family member sold theirs because they weren’t “confident in the range” despite never driving more than 80km in a day. Truth is I think some people just don’t want them and they look for a “logical” out since that conflicts with their desire to be less impactful to the environment. A 75kwh battery pack has the same energy as ~8.5 liters of gasoline. While the conversion of that energy to movement is far more efficient than a gasoline engine, that’s still a small amount of energy comparatively, so the variance is going to be very, very high.
