You will still need a bunch of battery storage, unless you are a vampire. Most people use there vehicle during the day when the sun is up. You will need to capture the sun during the day and charge the vehicle at night.

You need a 240v outlet at your house. You can plug into a 120v outlet, but it will charge at about 3 miles an hour. 240 will charge at about 16 miles per hour. Rivian Charger will charge at about 27 miles per hour.

Thanks. I get it. You have cost of revenue. You choose to take some numbers out of revenue. What are you taking out of cost of revenue? Everyone is using napkin math to come up with cost of a vehicle.

What is included in per vehicle profit? I have never seen it published.
I have seen people take total revenue divided by number of vehicles. Have you seen differently.
You can display miles and %. My ICE tell me miles left too.
I never have range anxiety with my Rivian or my ICE.
I think long road trips are different than around town. Around town even with the worst efficiency I would never run out of battery. The range is not very accurate because I go up a...
