Mercedes drew a picture of overwhelming optimism at the launch of its ultra-efficient VISION EQXX (pictured) this week.
So it says: “Range and efficiency will determine the electric age. » Really? Isn’t that the obvious?
Yes, but it goes on: “The outstanding range makes electric cars suitable for every journey and accelerates acceptance. Exceptional efficiency will create a positive cycle of battery size and weight reduction that will allow us to go even further with less. ”
This is how she envisions the future of electric cars. It has a range of more than 1,000 km on a single charge on a battery that would fit in a compact vehicle.
The automaker says it tore up the technical rulebook with it. Instead of just increasing the battery size, it focused on maximizing long-distance efficiency, energy density, aerodynamics and lightweight construction.
