No. The computer in the car will say you can drive 0km but you can actually drive another 50km. How well you can drive that remaining 50km will be a separate question: the battery most likely cannot discharge fast enough for highway driving.

My gas car has a 42 litre tank, if i wait until the light has come on and the gauge is on (and then drive another 20km past that), I can only get 38.5 litres in.
I'll do you one better: mine has a 45 litre tank, light goes on at 5 litres left, gauge stops indicating at half of that, but there's an unmentioned anywhere buffer of 5 litres, which is there so that the fuel pump doesn't overheat or pick up any contaminants at the very bottom the tank.
I only know this because a motoring journalist filmed himself riding the same model dry.
