"With a big SUV with 280 miles in the battery, I thought I had the perfect wagon for a family trip away.
Caravan loaded. Ankle-biters ready. Everything was good to go.
It was only when I realised that I’d dropped 120 miles of range in 35 minutes with the caravan hitched — we were just 28 miles up the road — that I might have made a mistake.
We are all supposed to be driving electric cars by 2030."
"Electric cars are rubbish at towing things. You get somewhere between a quarter and a third of the car’s normal range"

My brother has a 2018 ford ranger and a van weighing 2,7 tonne. Gets 300km on a good day. about 250 km if a headwind. Then pays $200 a fill at a bush servo.
