Miles/kWh

[Jamesrr]

I get 500+ km around town easily, Normal mode, regen 3 and A/C on always. Average around 15kWh per 100 km.

Highway figures much more dependent on road conditions, speed etc.

High quality roads with plenty of traffic going in the same direction at 110kph, around 17-18kWh per 100 km.

Average road with no other traffic at 110 can easily hit 21-22kWh per 100.

You get used to "knowing" what sort of energy consumption you're going to get.

I blame all the Christmas Puddings and Cakes. They use all the Currants and Electric Currents.

Charged to 100% yesterday and the GOM says 376km.
Lowest I've seen it on a full charge.
Think it's due for a calibration charge, haven't done that for at least 6 months.

I have a couple of 400km+ trips coming up. Will see what sort of economy can be achieved.

Hope to get it close to or under 11Kw/100km (5.6 mi/kW)

That's an ambitious target, I think you'll have to drive well under the speed limit, unless going downhill with a tail wind.

Unless I am in a hurry on a trip I normally drive under the limit. The drag has an inverse square relationship so dropping the speed just a bit lowers energy consumption by a lot.

In my old car I could get 3.8l/100km from a Mazda 3, way under the published figure.
