What are your thoughts on how Slate’s aero design will influence its range in crosswinds

You’re out there enjoying the ride, and then those crosswinds start to interfere with your path.
Suddenly, range is on your mind. How do you think Slate’s design modifications will stand up when the wind isn’t being kind?
I’d love to hear your thoughts and predictions!
 
Took my first windy drive on the highway in my old EV, and it really took a toll on my range. Now, I’m curious to see how Slate performs. If their aerodynamic tweaks actually reduce drag, winds shouldn't be a problem. Still, I’ll be keeping a close eye on the range
 
I remember once losing 15% of my range battling headwinds, so I know wind can be a real challenge. I’m a bit concerned about Slate’s boxy design, but if they’ve nailed the airflow underneath, it might just surprise us when those gusts come knocking.
 
After a tough trip with brutal crosswinds that drained my battery, I’m feeling cautiously hopeful.
Slate claims they’ve optimized both airflow and drivetrain efficiency, so even if it’s not the most aerodynamic, smart design
and power management might just keep those range drops in check.
