> which is expected to enable nearly 1,200 miles (2,000 km) CLTC range. That’s fucking huge. Bye bye range anxiety. Drive across TX (El Paso to Texarkana) and more without bothering to recharge or turning off creature comforts (ie, AC). Let’s just hope this Chinese company is not over promising

  > Those specific numbers were about a plug-in hybrid. So with gas power. Where are you seeing that? I can't find 'hybrid' in TFA at all. Admittedly it's a bit confusing that Americans stick with miles, and are also the only culture on the planet to call the (very much a liquid) petrol 'gas', but the reference in TFA was pretty unambiguous: "This could enable fully electric models to exceed 621 miles (1,000 km) CLTC range."
