Tough choice. Is it better to say it has a 600 mile range or that it has a longer battery only range (which is what the weight savings could equate to)? Is it better to say it has a 600 mile range or that it has several extra cubic feet of storage space or leg room?
There are plusses and minuses to making the decision, but from a pure psychological stand point, I think that saying you can go on the same road trip but it costs half as much to fill up the tank would have more impact then telling people they can drive twice as far on the same amount of gas. This is pure speculation on my part of course, but it seems like most people would connect better with half the cost than twice the distance. I could easily be wrong.
