It's not really much worse than the Leaf, and yet still manages much better highway range....This test shows that the Soul can achieve 106 miles range at a constant 62mph (actual) - which is pretty good considering it's not exactly aerodynamic.

Remember though it's got a 27kwh battery Vs 24khw for the Leaf.It's not really much worse than the Leaf, and yet still manages much better highway range....
(I'm beginning to suspect the Leaf's drag published drag number is a lie...)
Yes - which is just over the 93 EPA range for the Soul EV.Given that the battery is ~12.5% bigger than the Leaf, the Leaf would probably get an EPA range of ~95 miles with the same battery.

So... the Leaf must have about the same aero as the Soul.....?Yes - which is just over the 93 EPA range for the Soul EV.
