3 FAQs about Nassau electric vehicle range

Does the EPA test EV range?

The EPA provides range estimates for every electric vehicle, but they don't test EV range in the real world -- and Edmunds does. Read all the latest real-world EV test results from the Edmunds experts.

What is the Edmunds EV range test?

We created the Edmunds EV Range Test as a way to compare estimates from the EPA and manufacturers with the results of actual driving in the real world. As with our instrumented track testing, we aim to be as thorough and consistent as possible in conducting the Edmunds EV Range Test.

Are EVs more efficient on the highway?

Edmunds' testing uses a more conservative driving style and puts greater emphasis on city driving over highway driving (compared to the EPA's mix), and our figures often (but not always) exceed EPA estimates. While gas- or diesel-powered vehicles are usually more efficient on the highway, EVs tend to be less efficient as speeds increase.
