Do you think it’s because they’re using diesel?

In my layman pov… A diesel engine can take the least aerodynamically shaped body and move it at 60 mph for 1k miles no problem. As an American, I guess it’s just natural to me that if it can move, then it should move with glory!!

Edit: my bad I didn’t properly read your post

Yikes 100-250 mile range.

I don’t think using a diesel engine would make the fuel efficiency losses from having bad aerodynamics any better
