Can the BYD e6's massive battery compensate for its brick like aerodynamics?

One of the most well known for its large 82 kWh battery is the BYD e6. But the vehicle's boxy design has been likened to having 'the aerodynamics of a biscuit tin'. This leads to an interesting trade off between battery capacity and efficiency. First, the large battery gives a lot of energy reserve, and the peace of mind that can come with that for long trips. Poor aerodynamics, however, mean that a large portion of that energy is being used fighting air resistance, particularly at highway speeds. It also questions the vehicle's overall efficiency and whether BYD's use of a larger battery to mask poor aerodynamics is a good design choice or a band aid to a core problem.

I honestly think that BYD made the right move. The e6 isn’t winning any beauty contests, but that big battery means you don’t have to worry about range all the time. It is a solution to the real world.
