OK, that makes sense. So presumably you could put a less aggressive tire on the 20" rim and get even better range than the 21" version.

I'd like to know how the R2 gets more miles with the larger 21" wheels than the 20" wheels, the opposite of most if not all EV's ?

That is simply incorrect as anyone who's experienced both knows, as well as data to back it up.

Yes it is, it's not even close.

Is it breaking in the same area? I wonder if there is frame flexing around the windshield or something.

Have you met people?

What's up with that? Are you constantly smashing into things?

I quoted 2 posts as examples, but a 400 mile pack is not "huge" compared to the 345 mile pack the R2 is coming with. Question: Assuming no cost penalty, if all EV's came with say 500 miles of range do you think more people would buy them? In all my years of EV driving I know the main reason...

You have got to be kidding. I'll not continue to explain the obvious.

Indeed:

Explain how battery pack size impacts the price of ICE vehicles...

What I find odd is the anger that some people seem to express towards those who want/need a larger pack and more range. I'm perfectly fine with anyone who is happy with a smaller pack and less range. My first EV was a conversion I did myself, it had about 45 miles of range in good conditions...

Which part of ICE's aren't impacted by the price of battery packs was confusing?

You were agreeing with someone who falsely claimed that people wanted 2x the range they have now when responding to the OP who simply felt that for him 400 miles was the acceptable minimal amount of range. You equated that false claim to the increasing cost of vehicles. Vehicles in general are...

How does that make it better? And it doesn't matter how you paid for it. You bought an expensive EV with a large battery pack to get the range you wanted yet now you're trying to criticize others who want to do the same? Plenty of irony there, and hypocrisy.
