Miles per kWh

Also called: mi/kWh, m/kWh Miles per kWh measures EV energy efficiency by showing how far the vehicle travels for each kilowatt-hour of electrical energy used. A higher number means the vehicle is travelling further for the same amount of energy. The figure changes with speed, temperature, terrain, tyres, payload and use of heating or air conditioning. Miles per kWh can be combined with usable battery capacity to estimate range, although real-world results will still vary.
