GT/GTPE real world range

[MachGT]

I'm getting a solid 3.0mi/kw (102mpge) Mostly highway (65-75), and huge elevation change (sea level to 7500ft). On a recent trip where I took it easy on the flat (55-65mph), I got 3.7mi/kw (125mpge). I pay $7.15/gal equivalent for electricity (21 cents per kw). All calcs are 34kw per gallon equivalent.

My latest range graph is below.

The blip to 260 miles of range was probably because I had a period of more non-highway driving, warmer weather, and I was driving for efficiency. Recently I have been driving it like I stole it, taking lots of highway trips, and working out the HVBJB. Because that is what the car is for.

Consequently, my range has decreased again even though the weather is warmer.

I am very jealous. We typically see 2.1 to 2.4 mi/kwhr. on highway driving, even when it is flat, warm, and climate control is off. That is between 72 and 74 mph cruising speed. We have gotten up to 3.0on longer trips, but only when we keep it below 45mph on secondary roads.

Still way cheaper than our ICE vehicles.
