Car & Driver did their own wind tunnel testing for an article in 2014 that confirmed the claimed drag coefficients for the Volt, Model S, and Prius but found the LEAF's Cd to be .32.I still think 0.308 is high. Even the aging Leaf is 0.28. The Bolt is much taller and has more headroom, so it's a trade-off.

Here are the distances from a generic San Jose to Pasadena route according to Google maps:The most direct/fastest route to go from the Bay Area to SoCal, LA, or Cal Tech (Pasadena) is 5 in an ICE car or a Tesla. No one goes through 99 from the Bay. That's further east in the Central Valley.
Because there are no CCS chargers on 5, she researched and added on the extra stop/trip to go to Cal Poly SLO by going all the way down 101S before going to Cal Tech.
