So what is mazda thinking? Reducing the already small ev range of the original EV and adds a very inefficient rotary generator that can only travel 500ish km on 50L of fuel?

That's only like 24 miles to the gallon 😂

The BMW i3 from 2014 got like 42 to the gallon with its little range extender.

Stop it with these horrible SUVs, either that and/or the wankel engine sucks.

Why go with lesser battery? What did they improve here actually? They just made a trade off and nothing else. I think BEV version is a better deal.

Fearghast, 14 Jan 2023TBH, I was really looking forward how will this range extender turn out ... but this seems alr... moreI hope that there is a typo in the fuel consumption per 100 km cause my Renault Trafic van has a better fuel consumption than 8.3l/100km.
That is disgusting at best
