My 400 E only manages about 11 miles / litre (50mpg) which is pants.
(hoping to get more from the S)
My car will do well over 40 mpg at 80mph with four adults and luggage. Makes the economics of three of us hacking down to spain on the bikes seem a bit daft, doesn't it; we'd do it in a car for 1/3 of the fuel !!
