I Beat EPA's 2.9 Miles/KWh : Report Your Monthly Mileage

Practice having the car in the 0 power position with the accelerator. The more you can roll when approaching red lights, the better your efficiency.

I’m getting 3.9 mi/kw (god those mixed units...),

3.9 miles/kWh

My first few months on my used 2013 I was getting 5mpkw on bald max inflated ecopedias , the winter came and snow tires dropped to 4/4.1 mpkwh.

Been doing my best with this. There are a lot of hills where I drive though, and typically a good number of cars around me, so I try to drive ‘normally’ as much as possible. I’m a long term coast-to-the-light guy though since I hated converting gasoline into brake dust, so I do decently with that. I’m sure it’ll get a little better as I get more e-pedal practice.


Sage, somewhere my etheory professor just snapped a pencil because I did that, haha.

4.5 m/kwh

Mostly in town, rarely above 50, often in traffic where I modulate and use regen as much as possible. I also do exercise the torque occasionally when appropriate, so not your grandma either.

3.9 mi/kwh in the cold on snow tires. Not unhappy with that at all.

Summer on the stock all-season Michelins more like 4.3 or so, and I don't drive it like a baby carriage. Almost exclusively in town, suburb to suburb.

I hug the shoulders so tue baby carriages can fly by. I had one drive yesterday (mid 40s and sunny) of a few miles at 5.9 . It was all 30 and under, but love to see 5s back more consistently.
