Interpretation of the judgement rule

The "best-selling" electric car must not be confused with the one with "the longest range". The range of current electric cars bears no direct relation to market relevance, market leadership is the key factor for the Question Owner. "Verified" means that a well-reputed third party (e.g. an automobile industry association) must have endorsed a manufacturer's claims.

Current range of electric cars

The best-selling electric car in the first half of 2012 was Chevy's range-extended electric car with 16,348 units sold. Its verified electric range is 30 to 60 miles (without the range extender).

Forecasts for the prediction horizon

The range of current electric cars expected for the second half of 2012 could be between 100 and 150 miles (Source missing?)
