What math are we looking at?

I’ve seen some goofy stuff in FordPass, but that screen looks normal to me. Is there something you are wanting us to see in it? It looks to me like you plugged in at 38% with a charge target of 90% and it took 8 hours and 15 minutes to add the 52% to get you to 90%, then you unplugged the truck 6 minutes after it finished charging

check the distance added

Distance is always a “guess”. That’s why we call it the “GOM”.

nice range...finally

With the DTE update, whenever you L2 charge above 80%, it resets the GOM to a number based of the EPA rating (similar to Tesla) since the prior GOM reading was based on driving history and the new one is based on EPA rating adjusted for battery temperature, there can be quite a jump.
I don’t like the Tesla-like GOM, I’d rather see it go back to the old logic where you had to manually reset it, if you wanted to ignore recent driving history.

181 / 0.52 = 348

2.66 MPK projected ADDED range ER battery is optimistic.

[181/(131*.52)]

yes, seems to be just a silly programming logic issue, maybe a new co-op student on the app team

How are the temps this morning, right at the sweet spot ~70 degrees?

I've been averaging 2.8 MPK on my commute, so I'm looking at 360+ miles at full. A little additional context would be helpful for the math.

181 / 0.52 = 348

What did your GOM display at that time? Was the math the same?

Range / 0.9 = 348?

 

[skyak]

I was thinking the calculation employed was more like...

Range Added = (320 * End Battery %) - (Begin Range)

But maybe there is an actual smart calculator that thinks I can get 348 miles from a full charge @ current conditions??
**I don't think I have ever achieved greater than 250 but why let actual data get in the way**

btw I am not complaining I just find the math curious and humorous

So your truck shows 360 miles of range with 100% charge (or 324 with 90%) etc..?
