If this is about labelling why not concentrate on what most consumers are going to look at :

Range (ok on a basic standard route but that is what official MPG is anyway)
Time to charge from stopped to full.
Max speed
0-30, 0-50 or whatever seems appropriate.
Cost of a full charge.

Whatever measures are used the manufacturers will maximise something by tuning their products to match. I suppose if the labelling is biased toward what the consumer wants then maybe we get what we want.

Maybe.
