Traded in my 2021 Nexon EV 30 kWh for a Mahindra XUV400 39 kWh

In my Nexon with the 30 kWh battery, I was averaging 180kms with 10-15% remaining.

I traded in my 2021 Nexon EV 30kw for a 2024 XUV400 39kw recently hoping to benefit from the longer range. I have run around 1000 km. Here is a summary of the range I have got until now.

The first time I charged it up to 100%, I got 196.2kms with 7% remaining. This was mostly in D and L mode in FUN. The driving style was not very aggressive but not conservative either.

The second time I charged it to 100%, I ran 214.4kms with 17% remaining. This was in D mode in FUN and mostly slower speeds of 50kmph and very sedate throttle inputs which is quite boring and cannot be sustained.

My understanding is that better range is achieved on highways rather than cities. In my Nexon with the 30kw battery, I was averaging 180kms with 10-15% remaining. XUV in comparison so far has not been impressive on the range front. I should try a longer highway trip to truly understand the range.
