"Actual" range is an interesting concept. What defines it? For a given car, it's a function of initial state of charge, driving style, and, importantly, the route taken. That is why for the sake of comparison, standard "routes" are taken.The EPA figures are one thing, the actual range difference might be something else.
Tests wherein a bunch of cars are driven along the same route at roughly the same speeds at the same time until they can't continue are probably indicative of real world differences, but not necessarily as some cars are tuned better for certain environments than others.
