Imiev measured data

Interesting thoughts. I'm sure they all play a part and have some effect.
Though I feel the slight gains and losses in elevation have the biggest effect on consumption that trying to pick up on air pressure fluctuation or wet patches on a public road would be near imposable (given that no roads are completely flat)
I bit like going to a rock concert and trying to pick out the person whispering to them self.
Hot weather can increase the performance of a EV as the battery's perform a better. Skewing the results a little.
It's amazing how we can pick up on small things that effect consumption in a EV with very limited energy storage. Small things are just lost in the rounding with a ICE car.Driving a EV most likely makes one a more efficient Ice driver to.
