For what it is worth: I have a 2013 Leaf (not the best aerodynamics) and get consistently just below 200Wh/mi at a steady 55MPH. Have done 92 miles of freeway without running out of juice (just getting the very low battery warning before arriving) with my 24kWh pack. So the 166 number (6 mi/kWh) is not out of the question, versus my 5.1mi/kWh in the Leaf. NOTE: I keep high tire pressure of 43PSI and adjusted the toe to zero, which changed efficiency from 3.8 before the changes... Cor.
