Opinion: Personally I’m not too into the pickup segment let alone an electric Santa Cruz but hey, something new! We’ll see how it shakes out.

Every EV tryin' to be under $50k and above 300 mile range. Good fuckin' luck, I'm getting tired of these promises.

I mean, it’s a target. You’re not going to hit it if you don’t try.

It's CEO fluff to inflate an EV brand and everyone does it and back peddles on when the time comes.

But why would you object to that target? If they could deliver, they have a vehicle similar in cost to what many people pay and with sufficient range to overcome most people’s range anxiety.

I more object to them setting the target with “or”, rather than “and”

Because it's a bold faced lie that gets them a bump in stock price.
