Think A306 Range vs Speed (not a test)

Some time ago I had to travel 67,3km to another town and I took the Think there.
On the way there I drove with 90km/h - relatively calm.
Arrived there with SOC 57.6 % and approximately 150Wh/km average consumption.

I charged over the night to 100% and made the drive back. This time I really had to be there as soon as possible. So I drove with 110km/h which is the electronically limited maximum speed.
Arrived with SOC 35.2 % and approximately 199Wh/km average consumption. I took a small shortcut so the driving distance was 66.3 km.

So in summary... below is a table with calculation of possible range to 100, 90 and 80 % depth of discharge.


SOC %	km	km/%	for 100%	for 90%	for 80%
35.2	66.3	1.023148	102	92	82
57.6	67.3	1.587264	159	143	127

Driving with 90 km/h instead of 110 produces a 50% greater range.
