Therefore efficiency is still not quite at Tesla levels, but we are comparing an 8 year old EV with state of the art so not totally fair.
Another source insideevs ran tests on i3 and showed 3-4 miles/kWh(24-35kWh/100 miles) dependent on hwy speed, so yes it is less than 5 miles/kWh.

The best Model 3 LR efficiency shown on insdieevs is around 350 miles/82kWh, or 23.4kWh/100 miles.
