I get it, a PHEV that can go “forever” with a gas powered generator, but how far and under what loads? We dog EVs with their range degredation under stress, but has anyone questioned the effectiveness of the 1500s generator to recharge the batteries under heavy, long distance towing? Maybe at Max towing weight?

On a level 2 30A charger I can barely add charge to my Tesla while running the AC blasting in summer time.

    Yup. In a PHEV when towing once the battery goes flat you still need a full sized truck engine to provide power.
