Range is said to be 205 mi (330 km), higher than the original estimate. This price is for the basic truck. The SUV configuration is expected to be $5000 more.

I'm torn because the fastback looks cooler but it has less cargo capacity (both inside and on the roof rack).

Then again, I also really like the "open air kit" which apparently requires the squareback, so maybe the decision would be easy.

The open air kit, I think, is the seats and roll cage without a roof.

If you do the configurator, it requires the squareback as a prerequisite. So you're buying the roof and then taking it off again.
