Be patient. My Select AWD is now at 224 miles at 90% and equates to 250 at 100%. It took 2000 miles to get there. I took a long trip at 198 miles and had 18% battery left when I returned. With my 3.7 mi/kw, that’s 251 miles. It takes time for that system to learn your driving and become a little more accurate. My first charge showed 184 miles too. I am doing a test to 10% battery over the next few days and will report my recharge kWh.

It will happen…. Very happy with my 100% charge.

Weather does impact …. I do use the heat and AC in my car and I have an AWD premium with Extended Battery.

Don't charge to 100% with any regularity if you have any concerns about the longevity of the battery. User manual suggests capping at 90%. (Which is around 80% of actual battery total, in line with industry standard recommendations)

we charged to 100% as I have a road trip coming up but usually charge to 90%
