The thing about the Model Y is that the vehicle is an absolute minimalism with no features that would add any weight to it. It doesn't even have grab handles for the passengers. So yeah, it can go the distance, if range is an absolute must.

Whereas, my Nissan Ariya Evolve has panoramic moonroof that opens and shuts, has an electric motor sunshade cover, rear spoiler with rear wiper, and etc. All those add weight tinthr vehicle at 4600Lbs. Yet. I still get an average of 310-330 miles of range with mostly city driving (75%) and highway driving (25%)..

I have owned the Ariya for 13 months now and the range is fairly consistent.

Yeah, I don't buy these figures. My Tesla seriously underreports its own consumption (even though it can predict consumption quite well).

Please do the test by dividing actual battery consumption in kWh (or percent, as shown by the charging software) and actual distance driven, not the figures that the car indicates.

Impressive consumption figures for the Fiat 500e 🏆

Great to see the Model Y LR range test! Can you repeat the test with 4 people on board, luggage and maybe a surfboard on the roof?

EVs are better in the city, ICE cars rule the highway. My hillside home messes up EPA numbers, but at least EVs get a boost going downhill!
