Do you find it odd that even at close to 100 miles it's more likely that a Volt driver is more likely to have driven these miles in CD Mode rather than CS Mode? Or is that what you'd expect since first they would have had to have driven 40 miles in CD Mode so to get 100 miles in CS Mode they would need to go 140 miles?
You are correct that to get 100 miles in CS they would need to do 135-150 in (depending on driving in CD). So those trip will be less frequent.
if you drive 100miles you get 40cd and 60cs. If you go to voltstats you can see CD miles and total trips miles (choose it in the menu) and then you see the "combined" total is much higher at 100miles. so most 100mile trips use gas.
I also think that many of the people putting in lots of miles per day went with a 240v charger and charge at work as well. 100m in CD is 2.5x charges that day but if you do 40 to work, charge, 40 home, charge run errands with the kids, you can probably get that in.
