I know, I know, just a guess, but still -- WOW!

Up to this point we were only able to get to 305. I made an error last night and charged to 100%, and it showed 322, and I was surprised it went over 305?

My CA Route 1 frequently shows 340+ miles at 100%. Heck yesterday it showed 346 miles at 90% LOL.

"Guess O Meter"

The Guess-O-Meter tries to estimate range based on how you are driving. If most of your driving is local, you'll generally get higher estimates that if you are driving on the highway. If you live somewhere where it gets cold, you'll see the GOM range start to decline as it gets colder.

It's no different than DTE (Distance to Empty) on Ford's ICE vehicles. Simple math. Current efficiency multiplied by capacity.

If you're at 90% charge and showing 305, divide by .9 and your full range of 339.

Fully charge, then drive around town at 20mph for an hour and see what your range is.

I think it's interesting that as the car learns you it gets closer to accurate. I've got 6500 miles recorded now with not resetting trip 2 and my GOM is pretty close to miles per actual miles traveled. I still look at battery percentage and mi/kw as my main indicators. The car does learn your style over time though.

Maybe. The LOM (lie-o-meter) on Ford's ICE vehicles uses the last few hundred miles of driving. Drive the same thing every day, and it reflects that. Switch to a different form of driving, such as all highway (from city), and your range jumps. Switch back to all city, and it drops.

I suspect the GOM follows similar logic.

I agree with this. My current Mustang coupe which gets used almost exclusively in the city for very short journeys will give me a Range of 250 miles or less on a full tank. But take it on the highway and it will jump to over 450 miles in the right conditions. EVs are pretty much the opposite..... lots of city driving will inflate the range numbers and then hit the freeway and they will fall.

You went overboard, you are not allowed to charge to 407 miles. Discharge immediately.?

And that's why you need two cars, one for the city and another for highway driving.
It's a win-win, you are covered in all situations, and the car manufacturers are also happy to sell you twice as many cars.

I noticed the range estimate becomes much more accurate as charge percentage dwindles. It appears to use very recent history when S.O.C. is low.

Getting my L2 charger installed on Friday, going to give my car its first 100% charge and will be curious what the GOM says. I average about 4.1kwh on my 45ish mile commute, so kind of curious to see what it says.
