Not exactly sure how my reaction is irrational when I saw a larger than normal number for the range when it is stated 230 and asked a question to learn about it.
The 256 is not a real number, it is an estimate and usually a poor estimate at that. Jump on a road and attempt to get those 256 miles. It is possible under the most ideal conditions, but I would not get too excited about it. If you drive 30-40 mph in stop and go traffic in 70F weather and zero wind on a flat road you will hit 256

Not gonna lie really disappointing to see these some of these replies from some of you and how you’re mocking me about a valid question

they make software improvements throughout the vehicle to improve efficiency and battery range. Is it not reasonable to consider that they found ways to do that after I got my battery fixed and got a new software update? I never said it was an actual range. I’m well aware it’s an estimate and it fluctuates as it did when I started at 255 before leaving the house and it increased after hitting a stop light to 256.

I am on this forum to try and learn and if you don’t have anything that is productive and helpful then don’t reply. Some of us are trying to grow in our knowledge
