Please note what goes unsaid here. It isn't a mistake.
My S.O took the new Leaf to work.
It's about 25 miles one-way.
Upon arrival, she has 49 miles predicted leftover range.
We are _aware_ that the indicated mileage is a guess, and that real-world is _always_ less than indicated.
At noon, off she goes on a lunch date to the city, miles away, and arrives back at work with 15 miles remaining indicated, and only a 110 charger to pack-in enough trons to get home.
Problem - the charge rate on the 110 charger, times the remaining time in her work day, does NOT equal the required charge to get her home.
I received a text message outlining the situation (absent any hint of the cause) and saying, "I may need a ride." :shock:
The allure of showing off the new EV overcame those certain mathematical (and cautionary) neuronal connections, and caused a system malfunction.
Me? I am saying NOTHING about it. I will simply prepare dinner and welcome her home with a hug and a smile when she eventually shows up after having waited around the office long enough to charge the battery enough to come home.
Anyone else have this happen?
