The EREV lineup includes two trims. The Pro version comes with a 52-kWh battery, delivering a CLTC electric range of 230 miles, and can achieve up to 870 miles when combined with a full tank of fuel. The Max version upgrades to a 66-kWh battery, extending the CLTC electric range to 280 miles and offering a total driving range of 933 miles.

I dislike how the range numbers are just "added" together. I don't think it's reasonable to add fuel-based range and battery-powered range and say that the car now features a 900 miles range.

But, that’s how range works.

They did say it's an extended-range car in the title, so fine by me. And numbers are way better than something like i3 rex, so it makes sense they want to showcase that.
