And it will probably sell poorly.
According to the article, it won’t qualify for the federal tax incentive, so yeah… probably.
This thing has taken entirely too long to come to market, and there’s no reason to make a separate version just for the US.
I want the longer wheelbase of the NA variant and the bigger battery that goes with it. In fact, I’d like a bit bigger battery than what’s on offer (given the charging topping out in the 170kw range) to be able to legitimately road trip with it. 5hr drives turn into 7 with a smaller battery and lousy charging curve, and the infrastructure in my neck of the woods isn’t great for where we want to go as a family.
