This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Let's put aside the desert part, where is there 1,000km of road in the Netherlands??
If you read the little summary, the test drive was in north Africa.

I took a holiday to Eindhoven once, and wanted to give a gift to a friend from Amsterdam. He sent a mate on his bicycle to meet me. That wouldn't be practicable in many other countries, even if they had the same cycling infrastructure.
That doesn't detract from the success of the range of this vehicle, I'm just saying that it's funny and excessive for the Netherlands. But really, that excess is only a good thing.
That's a 7,5 hour bike ride, I call BS
