Interesting. I would think that without wind resistance, like at 80mph, the electric torque at low speed would not be wildly inefficient at low speeds. A Jeep needs to be at 4K rpm-ish for max torque. An EV totally different, albeit a lot heavier. We’ll see!
Whatever battery they were extrapolating from… is it confirmed they were talking about the “300 mile” battery and not the “400 mile” pack?
Of course the Rebelle is a moderate speed course, maintaining momentum and rolling on a flat terrain, regardless of dirt or asphalt, is definitely more efficient than the tfl jeep video where they were taking the vehciles up a steep crawling trail where you’re basically at walking speed and increasing in elevation fast.
My point is simply; it will be interesting once we see real world range when rock crawling/running super slow off-road trails.
