IMHO comments like this are much more valuable with some numbers.
The linked figure[0] and associated paper report that efficiency peaks for EVs at around 20mph and then the cost per mile increases roughly linearly, by about 25 watt-hours when the speed increases by 10mph.
Please excuse the archaic units.
