Why do a range test with 2 fly weights and a super heavyweight? 🙄 The fact that you can't figure out the efficiency figures before leaving the parking lot, baffles me. And I loved the end comment. "If I had to spend my own money, I'd buy the BYD Seal"

We assume you missed the bit where we each swapped cars and drove each others' for 1/3 of the total journey? Where were we unable to figure out the efficiency?

For comparison, we did a 900 mile european trip in our 2024 Tesla Model Y RWD in chill mode, 3-up + full luggage + wine/cheese/bread/chocolate to feed an army, at the speed limits in UK, Belgium and France a week ago, and did 4.6 mi/kWh average. MY RWD gave us 260 miles with a full 'tank'. Supercharger network was fantastic EVERYWHERE. For road trips Tesla's are superb and efficiency blows others away.

The range remaining that is displayed by the Seal is purely the SOC multiplied by the claimed NEDC range. I find Tesla is similar, but it adjusts the claimed range according to battery degradation, over the life of the car. Neither is an accurate estimate because they don't take actual driving situations into account. I don't have any first hand experience with the Hyundai.
