Quote: With enough range, you could technically drive most of the day and park at a camping spot with service to charge overnight and then get back on the road the next day.
Except late in the article, they indicate the range is 124 miles. That's a little under 2hrs driving...in what world is that "drive most of the day".
Pure EV works OK as a commuter car as most people don't drive more than 60-80miles round trip per day. So a 2 car family with a garage, you can charge every night and if you need a longer trip, you can take the 2nd gas car. For RV's, a large percentage of trips are in excess of a 2hr range and most families don't have an alternate RV for longer trips.
I would say it needs to get up around 250-300miles to avoid being a very narrow niche (even then it would be a bit limiting). Of course if that means cramming more batteries in, you run up against GVWR issues as most RV's already have trouble with.
