What's the expected range of an electric car at night?

If I use an electric powered car at night (with headlights) and heating (in winter), what percentage of the quoted range can I expect?

If you cover no more than 100 miles per day and have easy access to a charging point at home or work, then an EV is ideal for you.

Is an electric car right for me?

BMW quote up to 148mpg, battery mileage up to 25 miles for my BMW 330e. I can only attain 58 mpg and battery range between 6.8 and 12 miles. I feel I have been misled badly by BMW. I would value your opinion...
