"The first of the new electric SUVs will weigh between 2,425 lbs (1,100 kg) and 2,645 lbs (1,200 kg), according to comments made to Autocar by Philip Lee, the recently appointed CEO of the Gordon Murray Group."

"Lee told Autocar the incredible curb weight is made possible partly due to the design of the batteries. They feature an “immersive” fluid cooling system and are designed within a rigid case that forms part of the car’s structure, while still allowing maintenance access. The CEO also says the batteries have a greater power density and ability to withstand temperature extremes."

This sounds super impressive. I'm a big fan of his sports cars. As for a rigid case forming part of the car's structure, is this what Fisker will be doing with the Ronin? “Battery pack integrated into the structure for more efficiency and lower weight."
