WLTP is a laboratory test. Cars are driven at gentle speeds, in mild temperatures, with no headwind, no rain, and no passengers. That's useful for comparing cars against each other in controlled conditions, but it doesn't tell you how far you'll actually get on a real road in real weather. Real range depends on your actual speed, the outside temperature, and how much the battery has degraded since the car was new.
The table below shows physics-computed range for each car at three real driving conditions, mild suburban, cold winter, and motorway cruise, compared to the official WLTP claim. The “Gap vs WLTP” column tells you how much the sticker overstates reality under mild real-world conditions: a gentle 50 mph cruise at 15°C with typical battery age for a used example.
All data is computed live from the HonestRange physics model using actual vehicle parameters: mass, aerodynamic drag, battery chemistry, thermal management, and drivetrain efficiency. Each car assumes typical age and mileage for a used example (year of introduction to 2026, at 8,000 miles per year).
