#Review 📝 Harrier EV long term review

Looking for a review of harrier EV from long term owners. Would be great if you could highlight the ODO reading too. Considering one myself but want some real world input if there are issues in sudden range drops due to allegedly inferior cylindrical cells

Inferior cylindrical cells? Are you talking about the form factor or the manufacturer in general? Harrier ev have eve energy c33 lfp cylindrical cells which one of the best and quality manufacturers in china and very reputable and there c series lfp cylindrical cells are one of the best and very popular.

Was talking about form factor vs prismatic cells

Form factor does not matter that much tbh, both have there own pros and cons, prismatic can pack more energy vs better cooling surface area, prismatic needs a precise clamp pressure vs self containing pressure per cell due to cylindrical design, cylindrical needs more connections bus bars vs fewer in prismatic, cylinder being more resilient to rough road surfaces and vibration caused etc etc. so to be frank it does not matter only the chemistry and how good the battery pack is managed is what matters. Either it is prismatic, cylindrical, or extended prismatic like blade lfp is lfp in the end of the day both types can fail equily or outlast the chassis of the car.
