    Really need 300 mile range in the high end to cover fact that EV’s run on 75% of range, don’t discharge below 10% or charge above 85%) to lower battery degradation which needs the 300 so in 5 years when it is only 270 miles total capacity leaving 180 miles are effective range.

    It should also come with the Tesla charger adapter and access especially with the lower range.

      The battery won’t degrade in 5 years. This car ( if like the previous gen) is super efficient. It has a smallish 66khw battery and can likely get 300miles on a good day. The Korean brands under report their range. In mixed driving in the NY winter I can get the EPA range and close to 300 miles in mixed driving in summer with AC on. If rather see cars get more efficient that stuff then with larger batteries to achieve a high range. Cars that get 1 - 2 miles a kwh make me sad.

    This is great and all but for very similar price I would rather get the EX30. Seems you get more bang for your buck there except for no physical buttons.

    I really like most everything about this car. It’s really nice. Unfortunately every external shot seems to show wobbly, bouncy ride. Also 102kw is an improvement but I would like better. But she said $9k less than the I5, and that’s nice.
