A PR number would be "300% the capacity of current batteries with the same weight". A mile range is just bullshit, and the "journalist" just parroted it out without second thought.
have you met muricans? you mention "capacity" and half would assume you are talking trunk space
Change to range. Still no reason to blatantly lie.
Sorry bud but I think you are being pedantic here. It is basically industry standard (again, Murica driven) to advertise specs in whatever freedom units rubes would most easily swallow
You are not wrong but you act like this is your first day finding out about marketing
I assure you I am not being pedantic. This isn't a PR. It's supposed to be a critical article about a PR. And it does a terrible job at it. And that's what I'm complaining about.
