AWD w/Extended Battery - Range?

[dalola]

Thanks for all the insights everyone. I fully understand the variables, I just like to gauge others experiences. Is it relevant to me? Not necessarily. Is it interesting to me? Yes. ?

I have a 21 extended range awd premium. I've gotten as low as 150 miles to a high of 330 miles.
150 is in the winter, driving around town (lots of elevation changes and short trips). 330 was in the summer driving on a long trip constant 60-65 mph (80 degree, ac on at 74 degrees).
So the range can vary wildly.

Is that miles and Fahrenheit ?

The horizontal axis is outside temperature in deg F. The vertical access is efficiency in mi/kwh. You can use the best fit linear equation line to estimate your efficiency for a given outside temperature and then multiply that efficiency by your battery capacity (for example 70 or 91 kwh) to get your maximum range. Unless you start at 100% and go to 0%, your actual range will be lower. Note also that the top line is what your predicted efficiency is in mi/kwh. However, the actual battery capacity decreases in cold temperature so that predicted efficiency will overestimate your range. The bottom line adjusts for that effect and should be a better estimate of actual range. Of course, more or less heat usage, speed, and elevation changes will affect the number also and are not accounted for in those graphs.

Just picked up a new '24 Premium 4X....what kind of mile range are folks seeing at 100% charge? The first time I was able to full charge was this morning, and it showed 268 miles. I was expecting closer to 300? It's about 40 degrees today, I assume that factors in? Could I expect 300'ish in the summer? Just curious what others with this setup are getting?

I've had my 2021 ex AWD in May. I was getting around 270 until it got cold. I lost a few miles running the heat.

Open your Vehicle Page.
Stroll down to History Reset.
Hold Reset for 5 seconds or until it Resets. Check the Battery Range.
You should gain 10 to 15 miles.
Now your Mach E will built a new history or just drive and enjoy the vehicle.
It is going to be fine.

Well I have 22 AWD extended battery our winter range is right at 200 plus and summer range is around 300 plus

When I took delivery of my 2024 Premium-4X this past July, the car was delivered at 100% and the range estimate was 303 miles. At the time the car had 17 miles on the odometer. The outside temp was in the high 80s. For the balance of the summer I never charged higher than 90%, and the implied total range (calculated as displayed range divided by percent charge) hovered between 295 and 302. I drive only in Whisper mode and my trip meter averaged around 4.2 mi/Kwh all summer long with the exception of the one highway trip I took (95 mile round trip) when the trip-meter showed a drop to 3.3 mi/Kwh.
Now the hi-lo daily temps are 55-35. My trip-meter had dropped to 3.2 mi/Kwh and the new implied range is between 225-245; quite a drop. I also never sacrifice my comfort for range and so the climate control does what it needs to to keep my wife and I comfortable, and the trip app shows that. I bought the extended range battery precisely because I knew a drop like this was to ve expected and I still wanted to have 225+ miles of range in my coldest seasons. My lease comes up in 2027 and (so far) I expect to slide into another identical trim level which will have a heat pump and more. For now though, the car is performing exactly as I expected it would.

I have the same MME-in warm weather the range guess-o-meter has never shown a charge higher than 292 on my 2024. This morning with the weather in the 40s and charged to 85%, it’s showing a 190 mile range. However, I’ve found the vehicle’s estimate to be fairly pessimistic and wholly dependent on weather, driving style, and other external factors.

In warmer weather (70s) my ‘21 Premium 4x gets 310 at 100%. 235 at 80%.

I imagine you in a tank top and running shorts, sockless with sandals, and your wife in a bikini.

I’ve always worn winter clothes in the winter, with the heated seats and steering wheel the only part of me that sometimes feels chilly is my thighs. So I bought a 12V heated blanket for long trips.

Now I’m annoyed that no-one told me about 12V heated blankets three or four decades ago. All of my friends and family are getting a 12V heated blanket for Christmas.

You don’t “gain any miles.” It just makes the fictitious number change.

 

[Dear_OP]

Unless you average 250+miles a day, just don't worry about it. Treat it like a phone and use % rather than range. There are a few strategies for winter driving. You can search around.

 

[Chrisbriding]

I'm in So Cal not so a good comparison weather wise, but I consistently see between 290 and 306 on my 2023 AWD with extended battery on the "guess-o-meter."

Either way, I have played with these numbers many times on my trips and I have gotten comfortable with the vehicle. My range anxiety has gone out from the first trip I took to the coast a long time ago. My Mach E has served well and I have enjoyed every time I take it on 500, 1000 or 1500 mile trips.
I was trying to help a forum member with his worries. Every advice is worth it in this forum. So with that I was been a good encouragement to another forum member. You have a good point and I am sharing my experience.

Hah!! You’ve been peeking at my wife’s BookFace page! When I’m alone in the car, I also use the heated steering wheel and seats primarily, but when she’s with me I don’t limit her choices. I told her when I bought the car that we wouldn’t have to sacrifice anything by buying an EV, and so we don’t. Plus ours is the perfect use-case; both retired, average 17 miles/day, even have a LV 2 charger in the garage, and we always use her Infiniti QX50 for long trips. So I never worry about range, but I monitor it anyway because that’s what ex-engineers do.
