Default Re: Details firm on Ford’s Ranger PHEV

I didn't technically say the BYD had 1:1 ratio.
I just said a direct drive even with 100% torque available at idle is far less than a vehicle with transmission gears and an axle.
Low range is mostly pointless in even modern ICE vehicles with 500-600nm.
Back in the N/A diesel days it was essential if the most you've got is 250nm in a short rev band.
