> I think the only deficit it really has to the Model X is drag co-efficient No, the projected area is also worse. Air resistance is proportional to drag coefficient multiplied by projected area. Since both are worse, the best estimates I could find is that the Pacifica has almost twice the overall air resistance of a Model X. It's not as bad as the 6x difference between a Model S and a Ford Transit, but it would still mean almost half the range at a given battery capacity. Conversely, an electric Pacifica with the range of a Model X would be about 1000 lbs heavier. |
