EX30 highway range at 120 km/h

NRCan's tests show the Single Motor Extended Range (19/20-inch wheels) using 22% 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 EX30 ranks #25 of 30 on this estimate.

EX30 real-world range

Real-world range depends on speed, temperature, wheels and load. Mixed driving in mild weather usually lands near the rated 420 km. Sustained highway speeds pull it toward the 321 km estimate, and a cold highway trip can drop it further; see the EX30 winter range. For trip planning, most drivers use between 10% and 80% (charging stops) or 100% (leaving home) of the battery, which is about 238 to 306 km of highway driving.
