It's got a factory 24 kwh battery for an official range of 84 miles. That's 3.5 mi/kwh. I don't doubt that you can hit 5.1, but it's not representative.

- margalabargala 3y agoCould be a combination of that and EV-specific tires that decrease resistance and increase range. What I've observed is that I get about 5.2-5.3 in the summer, and about 4.8 in the winter. When my wife drives it, she gets more like 4.9 in the summer, and 4.5 in the winter. So there's a difference in driving style, but my wife definitely doesn't try to drive particularly efficiently and still beats 3.5 by quite a bit.
