I don't think I would take this one for free--seems rather useless to me, mainly because:
"86-kWh battery configuration provides a range of 125 miles while powering on-board systems. "
Only 86 KWHs in an E-RV is a joke. My Tesla M3 battery is 70 KWH. They need about 350 KHWs of battery in an E-RV just to be reasonable.
IMO, they need at least four times the battery, just to start to get serious.
~1.5 miles per KWH in small motorhome. Until they can start with at least 350 KWH batteries (~500 mile range) they shouldn't expect to sell many.
But as I have said before, I don't expect to live long enough to see a decent E-RV on the road with a decent enough charging Infrastructure to make it a reasonable option.
I don't buy:
". This range will meet the needs of a majority (54%) of new RV buyers who prefer to make trips under 200 miles (1)."
Unless they are only talking about their very first trip!
