“For those short commutes that these toys are stated to be designed for, the roads won’t support such speeds or acceleration. So, who cares how fast 0-60 is when they won’t have the opportunity to do it?”

Short commutes? The car in the video has a 285 mile range.

That range is best guess at the slowest speeds and without the AC or heater on.

That is under ideal conditions. 55mph, no wind, and 75 degrees. High speed winter driving will yield considerably less...

P.S. These bogus range figures are also based on track conditions and not hilly or actual traffic conditions.
