Real-world range vs ARAI claimed range

Reviewed by the EVz Editorial Team · July 2026 · how we verify

ARAI-certified range is measured under controlled lab conditions and is consistently higher than what riders and drivers see in the real world. EVz records both figures for every model, so you can see the real gap before you buy. The table below ranks the EVs we track by how far their real-world range falls below the certified claim.

How we source real-world range: each figure comes from an independent, published road test for that model (not our own lab), cross-checked against the manufacturer's ARAI claim; the source and date are recorded on each model page. This is an estimate of typical use, not a guarantee.
