WLTP to NEDC range converter
A WLTP range figure is about 13 % lower than the same car's NEDC figure. Example: 400 km WLTP is about 460 km NEDC.

Formula: NEDC range = WLTP range × 1.150. The winter estimate assumes about 25 % less than the converted figure.
What are WLTP and NEDC?
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.
NEDC
NEDC was the European standard until 2017. It uses a gentle laboratory cycle at low speeds, so its range figures are typically 15–25 % too optimistic compared with WLTP.
Frequently asked questions
How do I convert WLTP to NEDC?
Multiply the WLTP figure by 1.150. For example, 400 km WLTP × 1.150 = 460 km NEDC. 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.
