Maybe, just a thought, they don’t plant to restrict sale of this car to just the Netherlands. Maybe they’ll use it all across the Benelux, maybe even all of Europe!
Comment on Dutch solar EV completes 1,000km test drive through the desert
TWeaK@lemm.ee 10 months agoYes, my point is that you can’t travel 1,000km in the Netherlands. While it’s somewhat facetious, I’m still valid in stating that the country is quite small.
I took a holiday to Eindhoven once, and wanted to give a gift to a friend from Amsterdam. He sent a mate on his bicycle to meet me. That wouldn’t be practicable in many other countries, even if they had the same cycling infrastructure.
That doesn’t detract from the success of the range of this vehicle, I’m just saying that it’s funny and excessive for the Netherlands. But really, that excess is only a good thing.

That’s a 7,5 hour bike ride, I call BS

Often a reason I hear for not taking EVs here (anecdotally so take with a grain of salt) is the fact that you can’t take it on a holiday because of frequent charging. This could be a reason why excess is good even for NL

It’s 400km from the north end to the south end of the country, so if you simply drove around the border/coast, you’d be well over 1000km
