Harvester EREV analysis & predictions: 3 cylinder gasoline engine, HP output, EV battery pack size, fuel tank location, approach departure angle

[Chuckles]

The Ramcharger is priced less the the full ev. I think you underestimate the true cost of batteries.

Everything I've read says the Ramcharger will be about $2,000 more than the REV. They are close, though, and I have no idea how equipped they are.

Nope, I know exactly how much they cost to make. With emissions controls, EPA certification, etc. the costs will be about even and since the harvester will be marketed as an "upgrade" it will be priced as such.

You know exactly? LOL… Most EREV are made primarily in China today. On average they are $4,200 less than full EV.

I've heard this from other sources too! I hope it happens.
