Starting: 100% (12 bars)
Temps: Averaged high teens, 4 bars on temp gauge entire time, though.
Heat: On as much as I wanted
Drove: 32 miles
Final: 1 bar, 5 miles range, low battery warning. Project car would have turtled no more than 40 miles total.
Doesn't change the fact that 100% charge this morning at 5F it was still pretending I had 66 miles range. That GOM is just egregious and shameful.
Again I assert that in fairly normal freezing temperatures for the North East if you--how dare I even say it--want to use heat on this car you're best to not even attempt more than 40 miles because risk goes up hugely you won't make it. cdherman above me did 47 when he hit LBW, but without heat.
Interesting. A few questions:
What temp do you set the heater to?
Heater In auto mode?
Do you preheat the car?
Is it garaged?
What is your average speed?
If you put the center display on the energy usage dial, what does it show for climate control max? What does it show most of the time?
Do you use eco mode?
I am assuming you still have 12 health bars on the battery, right?
Sound like your average M/KW was right around 1.9, right?
