Battery issue at 100% only 298 miles

[subseavet]

Check you miles/kwh, there is a current trip, which is wildly in accurate for short trips, then an A and B trip. Leave say A alone and see what the cumulative m/kwh average. After 18k miles I'm 2.1 m/kwh, no where close to advertised range.

You're right in line with expectations and what I'm seeing at 16K miles. The EPA tells you that the range tests are not meant to demonstrate real world conditions. They don't. So they will never be accurate. As always, your mileage may vary, but there is no negligence by Ford or any other EV company. Just a crappy test regime mandated by the government. Such is life.

This has all been said already, but just to confirm my experience. 131 x 2.2 = 288. Congratulations! If you are in Florida, so you will likely stay above 2.0 unless you are towing or go over 65 mph. Up north I never see 2.0 unless I am driving around town or going with a strong wind. My truck average after 21 months is well below 2.0. When I charge to 100% it always shows over 300, but as soon as I'm 10 miles or so down the road I am well under 300. So, I typically always lose about 20 miles in range only going 10 miles when I start at 100% battery. You may learn like many of us...It's hard to learn the GOM.

All I see when the battery range questions come up

Got in the truck last night to pull it into the garage for my wife. With a 55% charge the truck is reading 118 miles.....WHAT!?!?!?!?!....Oh, she has the heat set to 80 degrees, fan on 4, seat set to 3 and steering wheel heat on....mind you it was only 40 degrees out...she'll have the range at 60% down to 30 miles when it actually gets cold up here in Montana.

Did you buy a Platinum, Lariat-ER, XLT-ER or Flash?
