It's all about your average speed! I rarely drive faster than 50-55, i.e. not many locations in SoCal given the traffic where you can,
and I average over 5 miles/kWh where I live near the coast. My 2013 Leaf is close to that efficiency.
Obviously, but assuming all other things are equal (same wheels/tires, same tire pressure, same speed, etc), less dense air means there's less aero drag and therefore higher efficiency. Therefore, lutefisk is going to have an easier time getting high efficiency numbers with his Leaf since Denver air is considerably less dense than air at sea level.
Are you claiming that's not the case?
