ID.3, 160km/h max on Autobahn, no head wind: average consumption 233 Wh/km. Sounds reasonable.
Same plan with 130 km/h max AND 9 m/s head wind (=32 km/h): average consumption 207 Wh/km.
1) Am I wrong to expect roughly the same consumption in these cases?
2) If I enter head wind in km/h instead of m/s (i.e. 30 instead of 9): average consumption is 235 Wh/km, which sounds reasonable to me.
So maybe the label is wrong? Should it just be km/h instead of m/s?

Where does this happen?
