"Instead of mega battery packs, Ford's next generation of EVs will be designed to focus on saving weight, limiting production complexity, and slippery aerodynamics. By so doing, Ford can fit smaller batteries and keep costs down.

"No customer will complain about having more range to work with, but a greater emphasis on efficiency seems like a more intelligent move."
