The in-bed extender could have over 80% of the Model 3 Standard Range's battery capacity.

It consumes roughly half a kilowatt-hour every mile, on average.

BMW is impressed by the result and says that it "looks forward to taking the next steps together" with the Michigan-based startup.

A bed-mounted optional range extender battery will add 130+ miles to the Cybertruck All-Wheel Drive and 120+ miles to the tri-motor Cyberbeast.

Marques Brownlee's video teaser shows enough to make a probable calculation.

It will charge faster too, thanks to a noticeably more powerful on-board charger.

Compared to the Kia EV6, it consumes roughly one kilowatt-hour more per every 10 miles.

The 2024 model year is less expensive, while offering up to 361 miles of range.

That's thanks to the new, more efficient drive unit, which in Europe is held back by a production bottleneck.

This year, sales of the Ioniq 5 in the U.S. will easily exceed 30,000.
