[SOLVED] Since there is a 2WD and a 3WD option, how will that affect the drain on the battery, or will AI control which motors are working?

Question

The drain on the battery should be almost exactly the same:

For example, to maintain 50mph, Aptera should put about 6kW total drain on the battery.

- With FWD that's about 3kW per motor, times 2 motors is 6kW total drain.

- With AWD that's about 2kW per motor, times 3 motors is 6kW total drain.

That may be one way... I was told they will be trying to keep the range loss between the two  minimal, but.... did not detail how?  I am getting the 60kWh so even if I loss some range... No big deal
