500e highway range and real-world range

At a steady 120 km/h, we estimate the Fiat 500e 500e covers about 175 km on a full charge, versus 227 km rated.

500e highway range at 120 km/h

NRCan's tests show the 500e using 20% more energy on the highway than in the city, so highway range is lower the combined rating. NRCan's highway cycle averages well under 100 km/h, so we take its highway figure and reduce it by 15% for 120 km/h. The 500e ranks #62 of 62 on this estimate.

500e real-world range

Real-world range depends on speed, temperature, wheels and load. Mixed driving in mild weather usually lands near the rated 227 km. Sustained highway speeds pull it toward the 175 km estimate, and a cold highway trip can drop it further; see the 500e winter range. For trip planning, most drivers use between 10% and 80% (charging stops) or 100% (leaving home) of the battery, which is about 130 to 167 km of highway driving.
