Two megawatt-hours of energy. Don't we wish! That would give a reasonably
efficient EV 10,000 miles of range.
Then it would need something over two and a half days to charge, using the
entire electrical capacity of a typical suburban home. (That's based on the
last 20% of the charge taking about as long as the initial 80%.)
Journalists can be pretty entertaining, eh?
