It seems hard to achieve four miles per kWh consumption without an extreme driving style. For electric cars, consumption is the opposite to petrol cars. In city usage with a lot of recuperation, consumption is much less than on motorways, where there is added air resistance. Petrol cars tend to have...

Yes I did read. WLTP ranges in theory should give a good indication of how the car performs in relation to other makes/models and not necessarily realised out of test conditions. The e's efficiency is not in the same place as its peers. I agree, great to drive and the interior is a breath of fresh a...

Has anyone asked Honda how the wltp range figure was arrived at?
In the e brochure the operantional efficiency is 17.8kW/100km (3.5 m/kW).
200km (124 miles) would use use 35.6kW.
50% of my Kona 64 will cover 140 without trying, something my e can't get close to when trying!

Think it is obvious to enjoy the "e" you need an "efficiency blind spot"........

To work out actual battery capacity is difficult as assumptions have to be made , ie losses in AC/DC conversion, is the battery heating/cooling, etc. There are two levels of battery capacity, operational and actual capacity. Measuring the energy to charge from 0%-100% minus 10% is a good indication ...

The 0-100% soc in the Honda is scaled (I believe) over approx 80% of the 35.5 kWh battery capacity, so I believe is not linear.
This makes working out the actual useable very difficult unless you run the battey down to 0%,which is not practical.
I ran down to 2% and the car took 31.4kW from the wall.

Expected range would be 114&135 as only 28.5kW available, unless you choose to explore how much you can extract blindly under the 0% soc (manual advised to charge immediately at 0%). @ Honda's qouted efficiency of 3.5m/kWh on 17" wheels would be just under 100 miles. My experience matchs Ho...

Probably better then you expected? Good to know driving style can make such a difference.

Bogga, how many miles left when you arrived at work?

I also keep a watch on all the stats, results are never consistant.
The one thing I know is charging from 2% to 100% only consumed 31.48kWh from the supply. I would be surprised if the charging efficiency is greater than 88/89%.
