Had my Leaf about a week now, trying to figure out the new math based on my driving around yesterday... This was from an 80% charge. Nice day in the 60-80 degree range here in Dallas.
The 4.2 drives were me in ECO mode, the rest were my wife driving like she always has. Do these numbers make sense?
"Date","Trip ID","Electricity Used (Total) (kWh)","Electricity Used (Consumption) (kWh)","Electricity Used (Regeneration) (kWh)","Distance Traveled (mile)","Energy Economy (mile/kWh)","CO2 Tailpipe Emission Reduction (lbs)"
"2012-04-05","1","1.5","2.1","0.6","6.6","4.2","4"
"2012-04-05","2","1.6","2.1","0.5","6.6","4.2","4"
"2012-04-05","3","0.9","1.2","0.3","2.2","2.6","2"
"2012-04-05","4","0.9","1.2","0.3","2.8","3.1","2"
"2012-04-05","5","1.8","2.5","0.7","5.7","3.1","4"
"2012-04-05","6","1.8","2.5","0.7","5.6","3.1","4"
Total Miles: 29.5
Total KwH used: 8.5
Remaining Miles: 21
Charge bars remaining: 2
That adds up to 50 miles. The GOM (yes, I am learning the lingo) estimated range on 80% charge is 84 miles which only seems off by about 40% or so.
I am sure I have a lot of reading to do to understand all these numbers, but for the type of driving it was, that range seems surprisingly low. Thoughts?
