"A Volkswagen team recently took the new all-electric ID.7 Pro S out for a
nearly-800km drive on a single battery charge, serving to demonstrate the
continuing evolution of battery electric vehicle technology.

The Volkswagen Team Switzerland headed by project led Felix Egolf, an expert in
long-distance driving with electric cars, recently toured the Zug metropolitan
area south of Zurich in the company’s new ID.7 Pro S touring saloon.

The all electric sedan has a  listed WLTP range of 709 kilometres,  but was
able to significantly exceed this figure, travelling a total of 794 kilometres
while driving an approximately 81km circuit of Zug with eight different drivers
on two consecutive days.

According to Volkswagen, the average consumption was an exceptionally low
10.3kWh/100km – comparing nicely to the lowest WLTP value of the model,
13.6kWh/100km.

Converting this to diesel, the average consumption achieved works out to be
around 1.1 litres per 100km."
