I would imagine Bach will yield best range.

Smells like April Foolishness to me. Though I've sometimes wondered what the range implications of the various Porsche audio system options are.

I believe the conclusion.

171 bpm heartbeat while driving a Kia EV for the “up-tempo” music sounds ridiculous though - that’s a vigorous cardio workout for me. Were the drivers sweating buckets after 18 minutes of that? I wonder if that’s a typo and actually represents the music bpm, not heart rate.

Can confirm, listening to Eurobeat = -50% range but +100% drifting skills

Judas Priest has been proven to reduce mileage/range and increase road rage. It’s a well known fact.
