150 miles of range is pretty terrible, especially when it's winter and you have a load in the back. Suddenly that's 70 miles of range.

I get that it's a bargain price, so that's the tradeoff. But a pretty bad one.

There are tons of golf carts on the road where I live so there appears to be a spectrum of use cases and ranges that people will tolerate.

I expect an extra battery option will be a thing.

  • From the ars article:

    The truck will come with a choice of two battery packs: a 57.2 kWh battery pack with rear-wheel drive and a target range of 150 miles and an 84.3 kWh battery pack with a target of 240 miles (386 km).
