minus-squareEczpurt@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up19·14 days agoI still believe cars like the Hummer EV shouldn’t exist. It has an enormous pack, like 200kwh or something. That’s enough battery for 3 long range cars, or in this example, dozens of e-bikes. All for a car that is impractical and excessively large.
