Update:
Jakob pointed out that the acceleration/deceleration values I'd used here were 
very low - I repeated the exercise using the theoretical (ie "manufacturer 
specification") value for acceleration and a default for deceleration, then 
with +/- 10% values for acceleration/deceleration. The latter was run under 
reduced traffic conditions = higher speeds/lower efficiency.

For the values for which I have multiple real-world data points (short 
urban/short mixed) the specification acceleration in Sumo shows a reduced 
efficiency relative to my real world. I might posit that the closer fit of the 
low acceleration value may reflect my "senior" driving style :)

The updated vType aligned with the vehicle specification is as follows:
<vType id="soulEV65" minGap="2.50" maxSpeed="46.0" color="white" accel="3.6" 
decel="4.5" sigma="0.0" emissionClass="Energy/unknown">
<param key="airDragCoefficient" value="0.35"/> <!-- 
https://www.evspecifications.com/en/model/e94fa0 -->
<param key="constantPowerIntake" value="100"/> <!-- observed summer levels -->
<param key="frontSurfaceArea" value="2.6"/> <!-- computed (ht-clearance) * 
width -->
<param key="has.battery.device" value="true"/>
<param key="internalMomentOfInertia" value="0.01"/> <!-- guesstimate -->
<param key="maximumBatteryCapacity" value="64000"/>
<param key="maximumPower" value="150000"/> <!-- website as above -->
<param key="propulsionEfficiency" value=".98"/> <!-- guesstimate value 
providing closest match to observed -->
<param key="radialDragCoefficient" value="0.1"/> <!-- as above -->
<param key="recuperationEfficiency" value=".96"/> <!-- as above -->
<param key="rollDragCoefficient" value="0.01"/> <!-- as above -->
<param key="stoppingTreshold" value="0.1"/> <!-- as above -->
<param key="vehicleMass" value="1830"/> <!-- 1682kg curb wt + my average 2 
passengers / bags -->
</vType>
