This tells me we probably need to wait until 2030+ for this supposed 745mile battery.
745 mile range on the battery and they’d make it a hybrid? What a waste!
Need a more complicated drivetrain, a transmission, an engine block, and a fuel tank. All of that added weight and complexity when you have a 745 mile range without it?
Why? What is their reasoning?
It'll be a much smaller solid state battery in a hybrid, they wouldn't put enough batteries in it to hit 745 miles. I assume they would use at most 10% of the cells a 745mile vehicle would need and it could be under 5% of the cells needed.
