I have had some really long range when driving in the Alps. We where up in the hill. It was a 30 km descent.
The gain of range is by regenerative braking but also because the miles driven downhill the ICE is off so they are registered as electric miles driven but they don't use any electricity.
The inverse happens when driving up hill off course.
