As I understand it, the aerodynamics can be no joke on EVs. The motors are very efficient, and there’s very efficient regenerative breaking. That means drag is pretty much where your whole battery charge goes.

For an example off the top of my head, the Arrow concept car manages 500km by not having side mirrors.
