How popular EVs compare
Real-world range = WLTP × 85%. A "comfortable" charge with home charging means daily driving is under 80% of real-world range — leaving a buffer.
Important caveats
- Real-world range varies significantly with temperature, speed, climate control use, and tyre type. Cold climates can reduce range 15–30%.
- These estimates use WLTP × 85% as a conservative real-world approximation. Highway driving at 110 km/h is closer to WLTP × 75–80%.
- Even without home charging, most EVs with 400+ km real-world range are practical for average Australian commuters — public charging fills the gap.
- Prices are as of March 2026 before on-road costs.
