Looks pretty impressive. Well over 200km range with some pretty cool tech as well - i.e. semi-autopilot!!
And the same price as the current version (actually a little bit less).
Will take a while before they filter thru to NZ via the second hand market but I will be very interested in upgrading my Gen 2 when they are available!
