      700 watts = .7 kW

      If you figure 10 hours of that (or longer but with less-perfect conditions) you can get 7kWh. I estimate about 3.5 miles per kWH on my Bolt. Not sure this car’s efficiency, but it gives us a ballpark number. That would give about 25 miles of driving. I understand that there are plenty of other factors that can go into this, but “fewer than 10 miles in perfect conditions” isn’t necessarily accurate either.

      That’s the other part, they’ve made the car as efficient as possible. They’re estimating 40 miles/perfect day because of that.
