The VW Mission Efficiency covered 1,278 km (794 miles) on a single charge and still had 164 km (102 miles) of range left at the end of the trip. Under those conditions, the Mission Efficiency consumed just 6.48 kWh/100 km. VW drove the Mission Efficiency from its development center in Wolfsburg to Vienna via Poznań, Poland, and Olomouc, Czech Republic.
