Not a typo. 25-30 mph with lots of hills and stop and go takes about
350-450 wh / mile. Going 40 mph on hwy 99 with few stops gets as low as
200 wh /mile. Going 60 mph on I5 is some where around 300 wh / mile.
These numbers are undocumented, though I've observed them many times
while driving.
Don't forget about having heat and defrost on. At an average city speed
of 12mph, those accessories eat up quite a bit of power.

You will probably get better mileage than I
since you will have a significant portion on freeway
whereas most of my driving is stop & go at 25-30 mph.
Huh??? Is that a typo?
AN EV going stop and go at 30 MPH can get more than double the range of
an
EV going at freeway speeds.

Hi, folks,
I just got a new job, which is going to have me making changes.
So far, my commute has been adequately met by my GEM e2.
Now I'm looking at 42 miles one way, mainly freeway with a bit of stop
and go at the end.
I'm thinking that, while this might be pushing it a bit, a 2013+
Nissan
Leaf SL might just make it, and I'm liking the pricing I see on used
ones with under 30k miles.
Am I being foolish? What else should I be careful to observe should I
try to buy one?
Thanks!
Best regards,
