The alternative isn't getting the full capacity at the lower price. The alternative is making everyone pay the higher price.
Personally I prefer the option of getting a discount if I don't need the full capacity.
Good. When people wont pay it, the price will drop.
The market at work.
Still waiting for the return of 99c double cheeseburgers at mcd... The market works in mysterious ways, I guess.
People are paying for the max capacity option.
If people won't pay for the less expensive battery, it probably won't be offered at all. Their only option will be a lower end vehicle like the R2.
