I trust my range indication in my petrol car to be conservative. It has about 30km more range than indicated - imagine the uproar if you planned a journey it said you could do but ran out of fuel? It’s quite handy as there are some areas I’ve driven through have no fuel stops for over 100km, and I’m sure the US has quite a few areas like that.

- tobyhinloopen 9y agoI have a Volkswagen Golf GTE. My dashboard claims it can run ~47km on a charge, and it adjusts whenever you change your AC settings. When I bought it, VW claimed 50km of range. In the 60.000km's I've driven that car, I NEVER were able to get even close to 40km on a charge.
