Operated with the 750W/28mph restriction disabled, this vehicle is faster to accelerate than most cars. Range at 30-35 mph is 150-200 miles, getting roughly 8-10 Wh/mile efficiency in these sort of driving conditions. With the motor disabled, rolling averages of 20 mph and sprints to 35 mph on flat ground are possible with nothing but pedal power.
