    @2:09 , battery location not only lower cg but increases the moment of inertia- both reduces the likelihood of a rollover and while increases stability.

    im assuming the U9 isnt supposed to rival the NIO EP9??? otherwise the price discrepancy between the 2 is miles apart from 2 Milly compared to roughly was it 400K? have i got that right.... im trying to remember what the SUV U8 was supposed to be which was just under a landrover slightly
