I struggle to believe that. Packing more batteries does not mean size has to increase by a lot. the biggest part of car volume is air anyway.

It’s meant for driving around a city, 200km should be more than enough for a day of shopping.

You mean where the people and shopping would go…?
There’s also more to it than just battery size, more weight, less range per W, more cost to manufactur, so higher cost to buy…
If you’re struggling to believe something so simple, you maybe shouldn’t be commenting on something you have no knowledge on…?

Exactly! Just put the batteries where the people go.

For driving around a city, 50km is already more than enough

That wouldn’t get me to one side of my city and back without a charge, but with chargers at malls, shouldn’t be an issue.
