The Mars II's advertised range was 120 miles with a 30kwh battery weighing about 1900lb. Bob Rice, a longtime member of this list until his death in 2011, worked for Aronson. He reported that he routinely managed 95 miles at 50-55mph with a Mars II. http://evdl.org/pages/renault_evs.html David Roden, EVDL moderator & general lackey To reach me, don't reply to this message; I won't get it.
