Travel speed is not driving speed. It is the average you actually achieve over a long drive at a steady 120 km/h once charging stops are counted, which is why every figure here is below 120. It is the one number that weighs efficiency and charging speed together: a frugal car that charges slowly and a thirsty one that charges quickly can arrive at the same time.
All 129 models sold in Australia have the consumption and charging data this is calculated from.
