Other than the obvious observation that the REx eliminates the need for an additional vehicle, an often overlooked reality of the REx is that it will always give you the capability to drive more electric miles than the combination of a BEV and an ICE.

Consider a 100 mile drive under conditions that will only allow for 72 miles of electric range. A REx will make that drive 72% electric / 28% gas. The BEV/ICE combination will make that drive 0% electric / 100% gas.

For a great many people, the REx is a more "pure" EV than the often touted BEV/ICE combination.
