There is a calculator under the "tools" in "garage&tools" that you can use to calculate the hp/kwh to move the car at speed.

Depending on the car/SUV it generally is just as hard to push it from rolling resistance to push through the air between 30-40 mph. After that speed the aero quickly increases while rolling resistance is mostly unchanged
