Set the decision boundary
Record the stated cycle, battery usable capacity if verified, wheel and tyre configuration, temperature, speed profile, elevation, HVAC use and load.
Energy compatibility is a system, not one range number. Battery, connector, voltage, communication, route and destination support must work together.
Evidence to request
Use trip and charge data from the actual vehicle where possible, then build mild, expected and adverse energy-consumption cases.
A physical match without electrical and service compatibility is not an approved pathway.
What can invalidate the conclusion
Comparing figures from different cycles can create a false ranking. Battery ageing, cold weather, high speed and cabin heating can materially reduce usable distance.
Resolve contradictions at source. Record the market, model year, test condition and quotation period beside any claim that depends on them.

Destination testPlan reserve around real charger spacing, route reliability and the consequence of a failed charging stop in the destination.
Turn the claim into an auditable vehicle record
Run the energy review as a chain from battery and powertrain labels to the destination socket. Record rated values, physical inlet, communication standard, onboard equipment, charge-session result and any proposed adapter. Then map home supply, public networks, climate, daily route and qualified repair access. Keep published range separate from the reserve used for a real route. If electrical limits, protocol or battery condition remain unknown, the vehicle is not yet comparable with a locally supported alternative and should stay on hold.
For this decision, assign a source, date, reviewer and refresh point to every required field. The six controls below are not complete when merely mentioned in a sales message; each needs evidence strong enough for another reviewer to reach the same conclusion.
01 Published test cycleCapture the original record and check it against the selected VIN.
02 Battery evidenceRecord the test method, result, limits and person responsible for follow-up.
03 Route speedState the destination consequence, cost exposure and approval status.
04 Climate and HVACCapture the original record and check it against the selected VIN.
05 PayloadRecord the test method, result, limits and person responsible for follow-up.
06 Charging reserveState the destination consequence, cost exposure and approval status.
Before approval, read the file without relying on the original salesperson’s memory. Mark every unresolved item as a hold, give it an owner and deadline, and repeat affected checks when the vehicle, quotation, route or destination rule changes. This distinguishes a documented A06 candidate from a plausible but unverified listing.
Keep rejected evidence in the file with the reason it was rejected. This prevents an outdated screenshot, superseded quotation or mismatched brochure from returning later as if it were current proof, and it gives the destination receiver a clear audit trail.
Connect the result to the destination
Plan reserve around real charger spacing, route reliability and the consequence of a failed charging stop in the destination.
Record the responsible party, evidence date, expiry or recheck point and the effect on cost or approval. A complete file makes remaining uncertainty visible; it does not turn an unknown into a confirmed feature.
Use the result in a buyer scenario
A commuter with overnight charging needs a different reserve from an intercity operator crossing sparse charging corridors. Estimate against the buyer’s actual routes.
Finish with pass, hold or reject. A hold should name the missing evidence, owner and deadline. A replacement VIN begins a new review rather than inheriting approval.

Questions to close before approval
Is advertised range achievable every day?
Not necessarily; conditions and battery state change consumption.
How should two ranges be compared?
Use the same test basis or convert them into one realistic route scenario.
Does low temperature matter?
Yes. It can affect battery performance, cabin-energy use and charging speed.
