when i look at that chart the astronomical range at high speed are cars with a second gear (has a 2 speed transmission).

the ones with "one" gear (no transmission altogether) don't do as well at high speed.

but when you drive the taycan at low speed it's very very high power consumption! almost double the tesla.

trouble with transmission is you are adding another complex thing that is going to be the weak link and first to break over the life of the vehicle. if money is no problem then sure. but not for the rest of us.
