Looking forward to the R-EV variant tho. That one looks cool. 85mile (or was it km? Doesn't actually matter) EV range. Electric-only powertrain for simplicity. Tiny rotary engine purely to recharge the battery while driving. You don't have to carry around a heavy battery. You don't have to burn fossil fuels except on a longer trip. And best of all you get the opportunity to say "Wankel" to anyone who asks about the car.
