The US compared the stated and real supply of eight electric cars

The American non-profit organization Consumer Reports complemented the large test drive of “battery” cars. In summer conditions, at air temperatures from 20 ° C to 32 ° C, electric cars were tested for “long-range”: checking along the highway at a speed of 70 miles per hour (113 km/h) in economical mode continued until a complete stop, the autonomy was calculated by the GPS tracker.

The landmark for experts was a margin of course calculated according to the EPA methodology (an American environmental agency). On all machines there was the same temperature of the climatic installation and the tire pressure prescribed by the automaker, and recuperative braking was set at a minimum level. In fact, in 2025, Consumer Reports supplemented the test on December 2023.

The main disappointment is the failure of Volvo C40. The crossover was able to drive only 373 kilometers, without 58 kilometers without reaching the parameters declared by EPA. Tesla Model 3 did not get 19 kilometers, and Acura ZDX (+14.5 km) and Cadillac Lyriq (+18 km), on the contrary, exceeded the plan. The remaining subjects (Kia EV9, Hyundai Ioniq 6, Honda Prologue and Fiat 500E) showed results within the error of 4-5 miles (6-8 kilometers) relative to the EPA standard.

In the absolute standings in the leaders of the Mercedes-Benz EQE 350 45MATIC (+116 km), BMW i4 M50 (+75 km) and BMW IX XDRive 50 (+74 km), and Tesla Model S Long Range (-62 km), Lucid Air Touring (-64 km) and Ford F-150 Lightning Extended Range (-80 km). Probably, as the list of “official” electric cars in the United States expands, the rating will be replenished.
