Nice touch noting the download size btw !
At least they don't claim it's a ZEV ! You know how much they cost ? Around

Well, I'm a tigger at heart really but I got de-bounced.
I see they don't include full series PHEVs (table page 3). That makes their car

An electric car is a zero emission car. Unless you have a power plant
attached to yours. This is not a lie or a desception.
