Oh, good, specs!



28KWh, 2435lbs. I guesstimate 0.57m² drag area (6.1ft²), which means it'll require around 11kW at the wheels at 65mph, so the 100mi range claim is very plausible.

Aside from the top speed of 65mph, it appears to be a "real car". Excluding the batteries, can we expect it to last 15-20 years like a real car?

How much will it cost?
