Well, other than the fact that the REx is always carrying around an extra LARGE person equivalent in the REx engine, tank, cooling, and muffler. Every little bit of extra weight hurts efficiency.
Never understood the appeal of a Rex. As my mileage shows (and on a 2014 without fast DC) one can adapt and live comfortably with the 100 miles of range of a BEV minus the maintenance headaches and extra weight of an ICE engine.
And regs make it impossible to use the ICE engine on demand. Those lucky enough to have fast DC and live in SoCal where it is starting to catch up will always be able to top it off in < 20 min and go on their merry way.
Even level 2 is nice and fast (3 hrs) as the BEV battery is pretty small and recharges quickly if one works around their lifestyle to always charge up when doing something else.
I guess it takes a sheep to jump to have all the other sheeps to follow
