Extended Range 320 Miles???

[chris.bryan]

I purchased my 2024 Lightning in September, installed the ProCharger and really like the truck, but during the purchase I was told the extended battery was designed for 320 miles depending on driving. I follow the charging guidelines from ford to typically charge to 90% but the numbers don’t add up at 90% it shows typically 240-245 miles so I charged to 100% and it reads 265 miles.
My question is: where is the 320 miles? Ford stated the extended range battery is 320 miles.

The range meter is really a guess-o-meter, it tries but it isn't that accurate. Pay more attention to the miles per kWh reading. You have a 131kWh (usable) battery, so if you are getting ~2.4-2.5 miles per kWh, you get the 320 miles. I can get that or even beat that in around town driving in warmer weather. In cooler weather, or at higher speeds you will get less.
