    Under the hood remains a not-so-efficient ICE, I'm afraid.
    Volvo XC40 has a very similar engine, so does the BMW225xe, and both get lousy mileage when running past AER.

    These are using the systems to boost power, not efficiency.

    ~35 miles

    The Prime is rated at 31 miles there.

    The WLTP is much better than the old NEDC

    Yup. NEDC would've put the Prime at 38 or 39 miles for example.
