All vehicles have range drops when driven ‘keenly’. Nobody can claim that a 2.5l petrol engine is going to be remotely efficient when driven like it’s race day. The differences are that the range is sufficiently large that you don’t miss the loss after 5 minutes of ‘fun’ and calculating the range or efficiency isn’t straightforward. Not many cars give distance to refuel with any accuracy (regardless of fuel), so you’ve still got to work out efficiency then multiply that by capacity. EVs will give a miles per kWh which is fairly accurate in the main, I honestly can’t remember if the mpg given is remotely comparable. Assuming the newer cars are equally reliable, there’s still a fuel sold in litres with a consumption calculated in gallons to convert. ??
Next time you drive ‘keenly’ keep half an eye on the instant consumption and see how far it drops.
