Comparison: Range (WLTP) Nissan Ariya vs. competitors 2024

The range of an electric car, such as this , refers to the maximum distance it can travel on a single charge of its battery. This can vary widely depending on factors such as the size and capacity of the battery (Ariya (63 kWh) : 65 kWh), the vehicle's weight ((Ariya (63 kWh) : 1980 kg)) and aerodynamics, and the driving conditions.The WLTP range cycle (Worldwide Harmonized Light Vehicle Test Procedure) is a test procedure specifically designed to measure the range and consumption of an electric vehicle. It is done in variety of driving conditions, such as urban, suburban and highway driving , as well as air conditioning and heating usage.This test aims to provide a more realistic estimate of an electric vehicle's range than the previous testing method (NEDC), which was based on a single driving cycle.The longest range you can find amongst similar vehicles has VW ID.5 Pro (E2 ), which is 131km more than the Ariya (63 kWh) - 534.0 km. For illustration, the difference in battery capacity between the Nissan and the VW is 17kWh. On the other hand, the shortest range in the "medium SUV" category belongs to Mazda MX-30 e-SKYACTIV EV , which is 200.0 km - that makes it 203km shorter than the Nissan in question.
