100% range test [follow along]

[BarryGoyette]

I've tried this once or twice and decided I wanted to try it again. I charged to 100% last night and will see how far I can drive until I get near/under 20%. The weather is warm this week, low 80's for the high, low 50's for the lows. Wind is minimal and shouldn't play a big factor. Doesn't get much more ideal.

Here's my starting off stats, I'll try to capture each time I stop somewhere and screenshot the internal stats as often as I can. I've noticed the coolant temp sensor seems to track outside temp pretty well. I'll post the rest of today after I get kiddos to bed.

FWIW. Starting from 100%, on an unseasonably warm 70° California day. I did an 80 mile round trip on Sunday, all freeway/highway. Returned with 250 miles range. Speed was 55-70.

Twas a first.

That's impressive for freeway, was there a lot of traffic to help drafting? I did find that 60mph avg netted me very good mileage with moderate traffic. I try to stay 60-65mph on my commute, but I'm only on the freeway for 4 or 5 miles. so I don't think it impacts me too much.

Not really, although the country highway that made up half the trip is curvy enough to keep my speeds low in the range during that section. I think the message is that if you drive in similar conditions to the EPA testing, that you’ll get similar range.
