Thanks.
I saw a post suggesting that a 2012 FX2 had a high gear ratio of 4:1 and a low gear ratio of 0.875:1. Thus the range would be 4/.875 = 457%.(if I am doing that correctly).
The range on the Onyx is reported as 380%, which seems quite a bit lower.
How would that translate in practical terms though? Would I have to work a lot harder to climb hills and go a lot slower on the flat parts with the Onyx, or would it likely not make a lot of difference?
