Electric SUV aerodynamics reduce highway range by up to 20% more than sedans

chip.de (German)

Electric SUV body shape significantly impacts real-world range, often reducing it more than expected. Higher air resistance in SUVs, not just weight, causes up to 20% less range on highways compared to sedans. This aerodynamic drag is most noticeable at higher speeds, affecting drivers with longer commutes.
