The positive results from this test indicate that we can downsize our battery pack, reducing cost and weight of the vehicle, and still achieve the 40 mile all-electric range needed for optimized typical driving. It’s important to note that Raser’s electric Hummer H3E can achieve similar results to the Chevy Volt.
