Vekke made a post on the 14th showing a 'way to go'. Today is..... 'Today'. Maybe Vekke won't come back to the thread to share what he's doing. I'm impressed with his meticulousness. I'm in no position to second-guess the results. |
I think we've had this discussion before, but you should look really closely at how Vekke is measuring his energy consumption results.
From what he has posted here, he is doing a 3 minute run in each direction at 100 km/h, taking 5 instantaneous energy consumption measurements each way.
And then claiming he can measure aero variations down to 0.6 per cent.
Just apply that idea to measuring fuel consumption of an ICE car using the instantaneous fuel consumption readout... and try to get repeatable results with the car in exactly the same configuration. You won't be able to.
I am concerned that if the testing methodology is as bad as that, and people (maybe like you?) are not looking at how it is actually being done, then any results he gets are likely to be highly misleading of others.
