Range HOPE!

[KAustin]

When I picked up the car a week ago the range was only 200 miles. I've put 300 miles on since and have reset twice. Today was the first day I charged to 100%. Not 270 yet, but picked up 55 miles.

So the big thing is....what is your miles/kwh?

I thought I had a picture from yesterday. Pretty sure it was 3.1 or 3.3.

I worry the resetting thing was the worst advice I've seen on this forum (or the most poorly explained). You should reset just once, if any, to clear any old driving history or anything. After that, resetting doesn't actually get you any more range, it just clears your real driving history making the guess-o-meter have to guess even more since it doesn't know what kind of driver you are.

Not in the plan to do it anymore.

Finished a trip today with 0% on the battery and an estimated 1 mile range on the GoM

Earlier it gave an orange warning when first at 0% with 2 miles est. range.

At 3% predicted 8 miles range, ultimately drove 10.3 miles with another 1 mile estimate on GoM

At 4% predicted 9 miles of range, ultimately drove 12.3

AT 5% precicted 12 miles of range, ultimately drove 16.1

At 10% predicted 21 miles, ultimately drove 26.5

Brave...

Ok, who's going to run it dry and take AAA home? C'mon, you know you want to find out what happens.

I think the range estimation will be 270 when I wake up tomorrow.

73 miles divided by 27% times 100 is 270.37
I havent reset anything yet....

So the range estimation was 270 this morning with 90% charge.
Now at 100% it is pretty close to 300 miles. 1200 miles on the odometer.
Not bad for an FE....

That's a car which no-one will mess with Mr Thor!

Love it!

It must take ambient temo into account because it shows a little less this morning. Pretty cool.

I thought the consensus was to not charge to 100% on a regular basis? Or is this just for testing purposes for you guys?

I have only charged to 100% three times. Twice because I had a 240+ mile trip to complete. The last time I got this.
