15-20kWh/100km is a gasoline equivalent of about 1,5-2l/100km. At 130km/h there is little room for improvement (thinner wheels, better aerodynamics). All the individual electric components in the car are like ~98% efficient.
I guess 10kWh/100km is possible at 90km/h on cruisecontroll behind a big truck.
EVs biggest problem are the inefficiencies in the electric grid, there is like a 50% margin for improvement.
