Drove home today, same 51 mile commute (11 suburbs + 40 freeway). Starting SOC 88%, in light rain, however temp dropped 10 deg throughout the day from my morning commute = 33 deg.
This time I went through 70% battery life (ended at 18) vs my morning commute consuming around 51%.
What was different?
I drove it like I stole it! 10 miles into my drive: Eco off, heater set to 68, seat warmer and steering wheel turned on, with speeds into 70s.
Life is good in the Leaf. My range anxiety is diminishing...
