As you can see I'm pretty consistent with kWh. So, for August I decided to try and get max efficiency for my normal commute. Since, I'm adjust multiple variables at different intervals, this is not really a test as it is an attempt to get the best possible kWh for one month. I'm implementing 3 approaches:
A) Adjust my driving, primarily minimize acceleration boarding highways
B) Increased PSI. it was set at about 36 cold, bumped it to 40
c) Use a few different drive settings. e.g. Eco , B-mode, D-mode. For the last 3 months I've driven exclusively in Eco + D-mode.
Initial indications are positive, one week in:
