I've read a number of posts with guesstimates about regeneration efficiency. That seems to be a "known unknown".

I've wondered if a reasonable estimate could be calculated with evaluating results from a long, relatively steady uphill drive of 5 to 10 miles, followed by coming back downhill.
  • I suppose the hill should be steep enough to involve almost continuous regen, rather than coasting.
  • the speed might be relatively slow to reduce the factor of wind resistance and to avoid coasting
  • I don't have LeafSpy, but that might provide more granularity than battery percent
  • Seem feasible? Other suggestions to improve validity and/or simplify?
