Lost about 9 electric miles, cold charge won’t go above 21 electric miles
so summer weather is giving around 28/30 electric miles charge
Would be the same for any hybrid or full electric vehicles. Certainly the published miles for electric cars would be greatly reduced ( bit like the present petrol mpg) and you would have to assume flat road too!! I would take at least 1/4 of any publicised miles
Still goes like stink (e trons have electronic differentials ) but reduced distances

I have only ever seen 30 miles once and my mpg is atrocious Avg about 50 over 15k miles , getting early 20s for the battery at the moment though I never see that driving by the time I have got to the end of the road it is 19. Really disappointed with the mpg was advertised as about 160 never expected to get that but I expected it to be better than my last diesel !!!

Seriously considering making a complaint
