I've had my LEAF about 40 days, now. All of my driving so far has been in town (35 - 55 mph), in ECO mode, with heat/air off. I always charge to 80% charge.
Range (till battery low) indicated: 75 mi.
Range (till battery low) actual: 60 mi.
Range (till turtle): don't know
Efficiency: miles/Kwh from Dash Display: 4 mi./Kwh (unlikely - that would mean 77 mi. from an 80% charge. I only see 60 mi.)
Driving: City.
Climate Control: typically off
These data show that the GOM is pretty inaccurate. It is not unusual for my GOM to show 16 mi. of remaining range, but have that drop to 10 mi. of remaining range within driving 2 miles. This is with careful driving, in ECO Mode, with Climate Control off.
