Question: roof box range hit?

[SteveInKirkland]

Hey ... has anyone measured the range hit from roof storage box setup? If so, can you give me an idea of the miles (or Km) / kWh and some specifics of your roof box setup?

This will probably be dependent on speed/weather but as a data point I ran a 10 mile round trip strip of flat freeway with roof rack and storage, then unmounted and stowed it in the car. This was with my BMW. Same day, same weather, 75mph. I measured a 6 kWh/100mi hit.

Assuming you get about 300 miles from the Macan 95kwh useable, that would dip it to 243 miles.

My experience with a Taycan with a 560L Hapro roofbox was a reduction of approx 15% when travelling at 70mph.
