EV Efficiency Calculator
Work out your real-world efficiency from battery capacity, state of charge and distance travelled.
Open calculatorEV Stats helps you understand how efficient your electric vehicle really is. Measure your real-world consumption from a single trip, convert it between Wh/km, kWh/100km and mi/kWh, and estimate how far you can drive between charges — free, instant and in kilometres or miles.
Work out your real-world efficiency from battery capacity, state of charge and distance travelled.
Open calculatorEstimate how far you can drive between two charge levels, in kilometres or miles.
Open calculatorTranslate Wh/km, kWh/100km, mi/kWh and friends into every unit at once.
Open calculatorThe range and efficiency on a window sticker come from laboratory test cycles — EPA in North America, WLTP in Europe. They’re useful for comparing cars, but they can’t tell you howyour car behaves on your commute, at motorway speeds, or in the middle of January. Real-world consumption regularly differs from the official figure by 10–30%.
Measuring your own efficiency takes one trip: note the battery percentage before and after, divide by the distance. Once you know your true km/kWh or mi/kWh, range anxiety disappears — you can predict charging stops, compare winter and summer driving, and see exactly what a roof box or a heavy foot costs you. Our guides on EV efficiency units and calculating EV range walk through the details.
Enter your EV’s battery capacity in kWh and your state of charge (SOC) readings, or your average efficiency.
Add the distance travelled or the charge levels you plan to drive between, in kilometres or miles.
Get instant results: average efficiency, energy consumption, and expected driving range.
Enter your battery capacity (kWh), the state of charge at the start and end of a trip, and the distance travelled. The efficiency calculator works out the energy used and divides distance by it, giving you km/kWh, mi/kWh, kWh/100km or Wh/km.
Most modern EVs achieve 14–20 kWh/100km (155–200 Wh/km or 3.1–4.4 mi/kWh) in mixed driving. Efficient models beat 15 kWh/100km; large SUVs often use more. Compare like for like — weather, speed and terrain all move the number.
The range calculator multiplies your battery's usable energy (capacity × the SOC window you plan to use) by your average efficiency. Real-world range varies with speed, weather and terrain, so plan with a buffer.
Yes. Every calculator switches between kilometres and miles, and the efficiency converter translates between Wh/km, kWh/100km, km/kWh, Wh/mi, mi/kWh and kWh/100mi in one step.
