    Overlanding with an EV

    I know that Rivian quoted a loss of range of around 50% in loose sand/dirt. If you are off-roading and the motors are required to produce near full torque peaks initially and high torque held constantly to climb obstacles you will see a much larger range loss than 50%. EVs are more efficient in...

    Overlanding with an EV

    We have a late 2021 Expedition 2.0 and I can’t help with the differences between the 2018 and 2021 versions and the specific updates. We selected the Expo over the Pando as neither of us are anything resembling a chef, towing with a Jeep so the 500 lb lighter weight was an important...
