> If you want to optimize for range you should apparently aim for holding a constant 50-55 km/h.
I think rather 80-90 km/h, at least for Nissan Leaf, as well as from the table you linked (55 mph ~~ 89 km/h)

However, for newer EVs the sweet spot will be at higher speeds, because those cars are able to recharge at much higher speed (at least 2 times faster).
The table doesn't show any data below 55 mph. This site: https://cleantechnica.com/2018/07/15/tesla-range-plotted-rel... has a graph that plots range vs speed all the way to 0 (for the Model S) and it shows the 'optimal' speed to be around 35 mph.
