[QUOTE="zippyzoe, post: 24919, member: 9106"] Efficiency is like an MPG for a gas car. you get 15 mpg in ur gas car and you have a 10-mile tank == so you can travel 150 miles If your car has a 3.5-efficiency rating and is 100% charged, you should be able to travel 350 miles. The nice or not-so-nice thing is that your EV car will start to panic when you reach about 300 miles of range and start alerting you to charge. Your ev car has a computer and its constantly computing data -- [HEADING=2]Factors That Can Affect Efficiency:[/HEADING] [LIST=1] [*][B]Driving Habits[/B]: Aggressive acceleration and high speeds reduce efficiency.
