Why specifically choose the Beijing-Shanghai route? Wouldn't laboratory testing yield the same results?
Laboratory data provides an upper-limit reference under favorable conditions, but what users truly care about is "how far I can actually drive once I get on the highway." The Beijing-Shanghai route spans over 1,200 km, featuring high speed limits, multiple climate zones, and complex traffic flows; completing it is equivalent to subjecting the vehicle to an extreme range test simulating real user long-distance travel.
We undertook this route not merely to obtain a number, but to verify whether the system's energy strategy and consumption control can withstand real-world scrutiny. Only by successfully completing this route can we confidently assure users of reliable performance in their daily driving. Anyone is welcome to attempt this route; we publish our data openly and let the results speak for themselves.
