Mercedes-Benz teases super-efficient EV with over 1,000km of range

I'm just tired of "commuter" EVs that don't have enough range for my 30-minute commute (17 miles each way).

I'd need at least a 60 mile range to be able to get to the farthest reaches of the nearest city and back. That seems to put me in Tesla territory, and the price doesn't make sense for the purpose.

Don't know where you're getting those figures from. A cheap little Renault Zoe will do ~200 miles. The VW ID.4 has similar range. A Nissan Leaf will do ~150 real world miles.

I can't think of any modern EV that does less that ~150 real world miles on single charge. Except for those go-karts like the Renault Twizy, but that isn't a car.
