If I hadn't stopped for a bio break and the efficiency had remained for the next 48%, then the range would have been around 217/0.52 = 417 miles. Or the range might have been 2.8 * 131 = 367 miles.

This is freeway driving (67 mph average, with in-town driving to start, several construction slowdowns, and in-town driving to get to the DCFC). Starting at 7000 ft elevation and stopping at 500 ft, at temperatures from 80 to 100 ⁰F. No need for AC at such low temperatures. ;)

Said the Arizonan, the Secretary of my Treasury won't be denied her comfort, I'd have the AC blasting and experience less efficiency :love:

Love seeing these- my best on a long trip (90ish miles) so far is roughly 2.7 - 2.8. Sport mode, onboard outlets off. Slow lane on the highway.

I know this is an old thread, but it felt like the better option vs. a different / new one.

After 2.5 years I finally got to join the 3+ club on my drive home from work.
Granted, this was a measly 17 miles on 40-45mph surface roads, but still, best I've ever seen before is 2.5 - 2.6'ish so I'm happy either way.

Generally speaking my commute is 50/50 surface roads and highway, so I end up with 2.6 on the surface roads and 1.8 or so on highway (non-aero 22") for an average 2.1-2.3 combined.

My job is only 4 miles away from my home and it's a gradual decline almost the whole route. If I'm not stepping on it like I like to do, I get these type of numbers at the bottom. I took this pic a few weeks ago.

Best I ever got was 2.6 all suburban and a driving style I'll call, "spirited" nets me 2.0 most of the time. Love sport mode. :bandit:

I could easily get a lot better but they made the thing too much fun to drive. :^)

Agreed. Lifetime is 1.8 over almost 23,000 miles.
