Electric VehiclesMeasuring 5,060 mm long, 1,967 mm wide, and 1,483 mm tall, with a 2,960 mm wheelbase, the Formula S sedan is slightly bigger than the Tesla Model 3. The GT measures 5,025 mm in length.
Slightly? It's bigger than an S class Mercedes.
At least it's not van height.
I really do not understand extremely long cars. Like, maybe it's just my Euro mind speaking, but isn't the whole point of EVs clean and affordable short distance (for now) urban/city transport? How does the city part pair with a 5 meter long car?? And anyways, I hate the push for EVs under the guise that they should be used in cities - urban transportation should be done by public transport or alternative means, such as bikes and walking. Swapping usual cars for EVs doesn't solve anything except for getting rid of the smoke pollution, which, ok, I admit, is not bad at all, but still...

No. It's just a different type of engine. People didn't start buying EVs just because they're green and cheaper to drive. They buy them because it's superior technology. A bit like how in RC hobby nitro buggies used to be the shit back when batteries still sucked but nowdays electric ones are much faster and more powerful. There's no reason to buy one with a combustion engine unless you specifically like the mechanics and tinkering with it.
My only interest is long term reliability.
I'd buy the hell out of that... If I could.
Something, something, "free market."
What an awkward looking vehicle. From the windscreen forward doesn't really work with the rest of the car.
The front by itself looks great, and same for the back. So close to something amazing.
This could very well be a Tesla killer if it can be sold in the US. I'm sick of seeing swasticars everywhere.
Would be surprised if you can buy ANY EV in the US soon.
Why?
American Auto manufacturers are doing everything they can to stop Chinese EV from reaching the American market because they are cheaper which would take the market away from them.
Cool. The less Tesla there is the better.
You know, that's a good point. Why wouldn't you keep a small refrigerator in an EV?
A typical mini fridge uses about 0.4 to 1.2 kilowatt-hours (kWh) per day,
Either a 77 or 92 kWh battery.
You can run the refrigerator for months without a charge, and of course only if something is in it.
Except for the whole slave labor bit, this is an amazing car.
This would be the ICE killer.
