Question Range Difference w/ Same Battery: Bosch vs. Brose eBikes

I am looking to buy an eBike and it's most likely coming down to Trek vs Specialized, which is Bosch mid-drive vs Brose mid-drive system.

I want to get a Brose for the quieter system, with the battery more integrated, and the Specialized bikes have more style points.

However it states on their site that the range for a Turbo Como 3.0 with a 500wh battery is only 60 miles on eco mode?

While in comparison with the Trek Super Commuter+ 7, also a 500wh battery, the max range is 90 miles:

Can someone help me understand why? Is it that Brose isn't as efficient battery consumption?
