I have an Atto 3 premium and it merrily shows me 480km of range every time I charge it. I might get close to that driving carefully around town, but I live in rural Tasmania, so I&#39;m mostly driving highways. I can get maybe 350km on a nice, summers day. More like 300km, which is enough to drive me down to Hobart from Deloraine, so no complaints. 2025-08-07T00:10:41Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsgup2jj6sa0malnqn7ccx8d8mdk4w8v23uccjeqqlajtgmxrvr8uczyqlv7q597xwkel7lfy6q5qwvnc926e44h54c745em5jzfcy3t662q2mn0s4 I mean, kind of.
