Keep up the GM hate, zealot.
It is not about GM hate or GM vs Tesla or anything like that.
Most of us here are experienced EV drivers. We know the relationship between speed and energy consumption and range, and how that relates to the EPA rating.
For example, the Leaf as a very similar frontal area and drag coefficient to the Chevy Bolt. The Leaf gets a better EPA highway rating compared to my Model S. However, when I drive the Leaf at 70mph, it uses 350Wh/mile. The Model S uses 300. At 75mph, the gap widens. So the Model S is more efficient at normal freeway speeds, despite having a lower EPA rating. If you are interested you can look at the Idaho National Lab tests of different EVs and their energy consumption at different speeds. The Model S beats all of the available EVs at 60 and 70mph, despite having a lower highway EPA rating than many of them, such as the i3 and Leaf. Since the Bolt appears to have similar frontal area and drag coefficient to the Leaf, it will probably have the same real world vs EPA test penalty in range at real world highway speeds like Leaf. By selecting a test route that avoids normal speed highways it appears GM was trying to diminish that effect.
The promise of a large battery EV is long range. Most long range driving occurs at freeway speeds. Highly aerodynamic cars are a great way to take advantage of a long range battery. It appears GM decided to not take advantage of that property. Compared to the Leaf, my Model S has almost no freeway speed range penalty. This is thanks to the wonderful aero of the Tesla. This isn't fully captured in the EPA test.
GM appears to have wanted to show that their car handily beats the EPA numbers in the real world. It certainly did in this test. Many drivers had 20+ miles after a route that was equal to the EPA range. What happens when customers who think their car will handily beat the EPA range try the direct route on 101? Instead of getting the 220-245Wh/mile the low speed route used, they will get 330-350Wh/mile, similar to a Leaf due to the similar aero. 60kWh/330Wh/mile = 180 miles. 350Wh and it drops to 170.
