So I'm on my 3rd day, and I know better than to put any validity in the "remaining range" numbers. However, from what I've read, the charge remaining value should be pretty accurate, shouldn't it?
I've been feeling like the % remaining is lower than I expected every day when I got home, so today I really paid close attention:
This morning I started with 80% charge. Temp was 76 outside, so I didn't pre-engage environmental controls. It was a bit stuffy, so I had the a/c on and set to 75 (barely blowing inside). Drove in on eco mode.
I drove to work, exactly 10.0 miles according to google maps (which takes the same route I do. About 60% of that distance is interstate driving, and I was driving 60-65. Most of the rest is a split-lane highway I drove about 50 on.
At lunch, I took the car to have windows tinted - 7.8 miles, similar interstate/hwy mix as above, similar speeds, then back to work. I don't think I remembered to put it in eco mode this time. A/C on the whole time.
The odometer didn't show anything significant, so I know the window guy didn't take it for a joy ride or anything.
Now, I'm showing in the owners portal to have 33% remaining. That seems **WAY** low to me. Totaling up my route, that's <27 miles, with a consumption of 47% of the battery capacity - putting the theoretical max from 100% at 57 miles? And 80% at 46 miles? I know I'm not being uber-efficient, but with the driving above shouldn't I see closer to 70 from 100%, at least?
