10x more energy divided by 15% is 1.5 times more energy
Tesla range 400 kilometers x 1.5 more energy will give a Tesla an 900 kilometers , Everyone manufacturing battery will knocking on the door If I am right?
Any advance on the arithmetic Semi. As it stands seems like a bit of a cock-up to me.
[10x 'divided'? by 15% = 1.5 Are you sure? In spite of that 400 multiplied by 1.5 = 900. Once again, are you sure? I'm scratchin'.]
