The difference in reported range is down to the different test regimes. The EV Database site reports the maximum range as being 41 miles under NEDC, 35 under the more realistic WLTP and 27 under EVDB (which is their average real world).

I would look at the EV Database, use the type of driving you will be doing and then decide. As above, the mode you use, temperatures and driving conditions significantly effect the range. Examples being if you pre-condition the car without it being plugged in you’ll take about 30% off the range or if your drive enables a lot of coasting / regeneration you’ll achieve a lot more. Eco Pro reduces the power of the climate / heating, seat heating etc and increases the regeneration.

I would say if you work on 25 miles electric / regeneration as an overall yearly average you’ll be on the conservative side.
