More power while reducing the range? Yes, please! Like nobody who drives an EV cares about range, just power. I guess they don't have anything else at this point to offer so...more power

Just do it. I leased an I4 e40 and its a fun car....still very quick. Although, there is no way in hell I would have it as my ONLY car. Its fine to drive it to work everyday.....but forget about weekends; too much to think about if your prone to traveling or impromptu road trips.

Well, firstly, if they did increase the range, they would not hide it. Secondly, more power typically results in less range. However, if I'm wrong, I will buy you a drink.

It really is! And sadly you are right, at the end EV goes further than any ICE out there.

I always love the idea of more power, but the i4 M50 is definitely more than enough in grip, luxury, and acceleration for me. I'd maybe like a higher ride height so I can bomb over speed bumps faster.

“…at the end EV goes further than any ICE out there.”
How does EV “go further” if the range is less? — usually about 300 miles, vs. about 400 miles for most ICE cars. I’m getting very conflicting advice from different people about whether I should get an EV or an ICE (or a hybrid) for my next car. But so far I thought it was generally acknowledged that an ICE would go further on a full tank (vs. a full charge). |

The 112kWh battery of a Lucid Air can travel for about 415 miles, or the equivalent of a 125mpg, 3.3 gallons fuel tank ICE car. |
