range

I believe that all they're saying is that, at 55-mph, and towing the trailer, the Ioniq gets more range than when doing 55-mph solo.
If the aerodynamic drag reduction overshadows the increase in rolling resistance, the Road Load will be reduced, the total power along with it, for an overall savings.
Adding over 700-pounds to the T-100, I can get the same mpg, as solo.
There's no reason the trailer couldn't weigh 200-pounds.
I should be able to see 40-mpg at 65-mph with the new trailer. 140-mpg-e if an EV Truck.
