Just 280+ mile EPA range on a 122 kwH battery. 5100 pounds. 2.5s to 60. Not insane by any standard, ICE or EV.

Just 280+ mile EPA range on a 122 kwH battery. 5100 pounds. 2.5s to 60. Not insane by any standard, ICE or EV.
- anvuong 4mo agoYeah that's actually rather inefficient. Tesla Model Y has 84kWh battery and a range of 300 miles.
- thrownthatway 4mo agoDoes it really?
- margalabargala 4mo agoNo, but we're comparing the EPA ranges here, which is the point of them.
- thrownthatway 4mo agoThe point of the EPA ranges are to be misleading. The car manufacturers are well aware of what their vehicles achieve in real world usage. It would be trivial for them to give and prospective buyer indicative ranges for any particular geographical area.
- margalabargala 4mo agoYou're missing the point. The actual number of the EPA range is imaginary, yes. But it's useful for comparisons. But if we're talking about comparisons between two vehicles, the vehicle with a 122kWh battery and a 280 EPA range will go less far and is much less efficient than the vehicle with a 84kWh batter and a 300 EPA range.

- margalabargala 4mo agoThanks for the thoughtful, eloquent response.
- rootusrootus 4mo agoNot really, no, except in narrow circumstances.
- amarant 4mo agoI've done Stockholm - Oslo on a single charge in early winter, which is almost exactly that distance, so I'd say it does! Even kept me nice and toasty along the way!
- overfeed 4mo ago> Yeah that's actually rather inefficient Unsurprising, for a Ferrari. I suspect it's designed for performance and not efficiency. Atrocious mileage is par for the course in this segment (see the Veyron)
- nradov 4mo agoA lot of Ferraris are driven less than 280 miles per year.
- bathtub365 4mo agoThey’ve historically had eye watering regular maintenance bills, even outside of them generally having a reputation for being temperamental. Maybe Ferrari will continue pioneering in their own way and make an unreliable and expensive to own EV
