EPA to WLTP range converter
A EPA range figure is about 27 % lower than the same car's WLTP figure. Example: 400 km EPA is about 548 km WLTP.

Formula: WLTP range = EPA range × 1.370. The winter estimate assumes about 25 % less than the converted figure.
What are EPA and WLTP?
EPA
EPA is the US standard. It applies an extra correction to the lab result, which makes it the most conservative of the four and the closest to what drivers see in mixed real-world use.
WLTP
WLTP is the European standard since 2017. It mixes urban, suburban and motorway driving at speeds up to 131 km/h and is the figure on EU price lists. It is a fair reference, though everyday range is usually 10–20 % lower.
Frequently asked questions
How do I convert EPA to WLTP?
Multiply the EPA figure by 1.370. For example, 400 km EPA × 1.370 = 548 km WLTP. This is an average ratio: individual cars can differ by several percent.
Which figure is closest to real-world range?
EPA is the most conservative and usually the closest to mixed everyday driving. In winter, on the motorway or with a heavy load, expect a further 20–30 % less than any of these figures.
Why do the standards give different results?
Each standard uses a different test cycle: speeds, acceleration, temperature and how the lab result is adjusted differ. The car is the same; the yardstick is not.
