Comparison: Range (WLTP) Abarth 500/595/695 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 (500e (42 kWh) : 42 kWh), the vehicle's weight ((500e (42 kWh) : 1410 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 Elaris Finn ( ), which is 12km more than the 500e (42 kWh) - 265 km. For illustration, the difference in battery capacity between the Abarth and the Elaris is -11kWh. On the other hand, the shortest range in the " hatchback" category belongs to Opel Rocks Electric , which is 75 km - that makes it 178km shorter than the Abarth in question.
