WLTP is the official EU test cycle; real-world figures are usually a bit lower. See the guide on WLTP versus real-world consumption.

A short write-up on each car, one paragraph apiece. We describe them on their own terms rather than picking a winner.
Profile · ZE2, derde generatie (2025+)
Third-generation Leaf (ZE2), now an SUV-coupé on the CMF-EV platform of the Alliance (shared with Ariya). Swaps CHAdeMO for CCS Combo and has liquid cooling of the battery, two historical pain points of the previous Leaf generations. Top version with 75 kWh battery reaches WLTP 604 km (manufacturer figure); 52 kWh entry has a lower range (version-dependent).
Profile · E-Tech Electric 60 kWh (2024)
Compact EV hatchback on the CMF-EV platform. With the 60 kWh pack Renault states around 450 km WLTP (manufacturer figure indicative); in winter owners of comparable EVs report 20-30% less (public forums not measured by us). DC charging up to about 130 kW. No towing capacity.
