    That’s…Not really that impressive. I use 145Wh/km during the summer (scandinavia) with mixed highway and main road driving, if I had a 150Kwh I could get that range easily. Long range with a humongous battery is pretty expected.

      Not really the point of the article. The point is that they’ve built a 150Kw pack that will fit into a sedan.

        Or that they can replicate amazing results under test conditions rather than real world… you know, coming out of China which I don’t trust anyway.

            No, but making a battery at a mass that allows for that kind of efficiency has to come with asterisks.

            But I would assume that of any country’s findings that result in a headline like this.
