Electric range in the real world

Official (WLTP) 100 km
Motorway at 100 km/h ~75 km
Winter, near freezing ~75 km
Towing a trailer ~50 km

Estimates from the official figure using typical losses: about a quarter off at motorway speeds or in cold weather, and around half when towing. Your range will depend on speed, hills, weather and load.

Charging times

Wall socket (10 A), 0–100%
about 14 h 30 min
Home wallbox (7 kW), 0–100%
about 4 h 30 min
50 kW fast charger, 10–80%
about 55 min

Estimates from the battery size and the car’s peak charging rates. Fast charging slows as the battery fills, and in the cold, so real sessions vary.
