4.4 mi/kwh

I get in the mid 4s around town but low 3s on the highway at 70mph.

LOL I get low to mid 3s in town and low to mid 2s on the highway. BTW I don’t really care. ??

I have a brand new 2024 Premium4-X and have also been seeing 4.1-4.4 m/KWh. I usually drive in Whisper mode, my mix is 60/40 city/hwy, and I follow a ‘don’t aggravate (other drivers)’ approach to acceleration and cruising speed. So I try to blend in with traffic without holding anyone up, but I’m also definitiely not a Prius hyper-miler either. I find that even driving like this, the instant electric torque creates instant, and growing, separation when I’m leading the pack away from a green light, and so I still get to my cruising speed faster than the ice-age cars following me. The fact is, most of the traffic circumstances I confront during my daily driving here in SE PA don’t allow a more playful approach to driving anyway, so this style ‘meets the need’ and provides better than expected efficiency.
Am I missing out on the ‘fun’ the Mach-E was designed to deliver under the other two driving modes?…….I suppose so. So then after I’m satisfied that I’ve established a reliable efficiency baseline with this current driving style, I plan to switch to engaged to see how much I lose, and a couple of months later, switch up to unbridled. Again, I’m not sure how much more ‘playful’ I can be, but I definitely will give it a try to see what I’m missing. I predict that engaged will be a good fit, but that unbridled might be a bit much For my driving environment.

The mode setting has no effect on efficiency unless it causes you to alter your driving style.
