  So does the EV9, but it exceeded the EPA range in the same test.

    This was a highway test though, not how EPA test the ranges

      I know. But this YouTube channel, Out of Spec, runs this exact same 70mph loop in every EV. A large number of them exceed their EPA rated range in this test. I mentioned the EV9 because it’s similar to the Cybertruck in many ways (a brick…), and I had just watched that range test this week.

      Also worth noting the guy is a Tesla fanboy, so he’s not going to deliberately make the CT look bad.

  Aha yes, but what about other EVs?
