I'm not used to hyper-milling.
I wish I had more time to run more tests, but I also have stuff to do at work, and traffic is pretty bad in the morning (especially on 101).
Got to drop the kids at pre-school tomorrow morning, so I won't be able to try a long stretch of highway at 60mph. Maybe tomorrow evening.
in the meantime, here's a pretty lame video of me accelerating on a ramp, it's going uphill, and I can't even get to 60 mph, because of the cars in front of me. But you can kinda hear the sound of the electric motor in the video.
Driving like that (full acceleration going uphill) is like cursing in church for a EV driver .. Amount of power needed for that acceleration is very high
I would wait until there is another driver out there who is into eco driveing to confirm range... Its not only about what speed you keep, its also about acceleration and deacceleration before a red light and planning for the green light wave.. Driving ECO makes a BIG difference I bet i will have no problem driving over 100 miles!
Not saying you are doing anything wrong Gudy!! Its your car and you do whatever you want with it! I would do the same with my new LEAF! :twisted: :twisted:
