      Aggressive doesn’t mean fast. It means more abrupt changes, more acceleration/deceleration

      For example, with the frigid weather I notice I use a lot of brake when regen isn’t effective

      I read aggressive as in accelerating aggressively. Possibly to get around people?

      The word aggressive is from the article, so I don’t know. Anyways driving 70mph consistently is going to deliver you less than the advertised range with EVs, which I believe is a blend of driving types not just constant highway speed. Consider while ICE cars have awful efficiency in city driving (stop/start) so highway driving is preferred, with EVs it’s actually the other way around thanks to fewer mechanical losses and battery regen braking.

      It’s below the recommended average on German roads (stands at 130kph / ~81mph).
