Miles/Kwh

[illopp00]

I did this recently too, I feel trip A is looking for some condition to reset and start counting KW if you reset it on the move. Ie like you need to be below some certain speed before it restarts.

It will not display values over 6.21

It will not display values over 6.21

The good news is that it does store the data above 6.21 miles/kWh for the overall trip calculation. After a really long slog downhill at 6.21 miles/kWh, I started back uphill, and was surprised at how long I drove before the 6.21 finally ticked down. My real miles/kWh on the downhill must have been quite high.

But the implied actual performance then, if this wasn't wonky, is 9 miles/kWh. (28 miles/ 3 Kwh) That seems...um impossible, unless my commute was entirely downhill (Which it isn't

While this may seem like a random number, it is actually the same as 10 km.

@Westchester Air 's commute:

Ok...so charged her back up to 80% overnight. She took 16 kWh. So, I see the implication as follows:

• First leg of commute, I recall taking 9 kWh and 28 miles. This would have been about a 3.1 mi/kWh, including "non-driving" drain.
• Second leg, based on the actual recharge was about 7kWh and also 28 miles. This is about 4 mi/kWh (not 6.21).
• Total trip 16 kWh for 57 miles or about 3.56 mi/kWh, not the 4.65 on the readout.

Very strange. i assume like in other areas, something froze up on the Trip Info. I'll monitor going forward and/or do a quick reboot.

To circle back on this, it certainly seems like the Trip computer is a bit messed up. My first trip since last week yielded this nonsense:

I reset the Trip A before leaving, so the "Since Last Charge" does show the correct number of miles. However, the kWh and the Mi/kWh are back to funny business. The Trip A and the Trip B (my lifetime numbers) seem to be reasonably correct.

I'll do a software reset before my next charge. Hopefully that'll fix it. Medium term plan is to follow @borski advice and take a crack at Home Assistant. That'll give me more numbers than I know what to do with

Up and back on the Pennsylvania Turnpike yesterday. 4.11 mi/kWh . Was about 60 mile trip.

~ 70 degrees F. Flat section, no wind, out and return trip so cancels out anyway. Adapt.Cz on set to ~ 70 mph. Have ~ 6 miles of local roads / lights at both ends of trip.

My lifetime average is 3.33 mi./kWh winter/summer 19" and 21". I am more than happy with these numbers.

No Worries Mate !

I very much want to take the Lucid to Times Square tomorrow (going to see Clooney = Good Night...) . It's a great car trip ... about 100 miles from here on PA and Jersey pikes
...but I won't give car to valet for parking.
Going to take wife's Mazda. I'm kinda bummed. We usually train into NYC, which is the way...but have adult child "stuff" issues = the apts. in NYC are tiny

Anyone else do this ? ... let strangers drive their Air ?

I have valet’d plenty.

I call it "Ferris Bueller syndrome".

My "lifetime" rate went from 3.43 to 3.60 after the last couple of OTAs, but I'm not noticing much difference in becoming more efficient. Probably not paying attention to the stat. Touring w/ 20" wheels. 4mi/kWh would be a typo lol!

 

[jpcornett]

So, I'm a couple of weeks into my ownership (AT) and am trying to get a decent understanding of what my expectations should be with regard to M/Kwh. For background, I'm just north of NYC, so the last couple of weeks have been high 30s or low 40s in the AM and highs, generally in the 50s. Also, the car is parked outside, not garaged. Morning drives seem to be just north of 3 miles/Kwh, afternoons somewhat better. Honestly, not as good as I thought it would be. Just wondering...Is this typical and expected? And...does it get better as the tires and motor "break in"?

I believe the EPA estimates are closer to 4.5, which I'm guessing is more ideal conditions.

So...in general, would love to hear about peoples experience in weather that's similar to mine and looking ahead, how that changes in the summer and dead of winter. Thanks everyI

I have had my GT for 3 years. generally, its about 70% of what the dash says you have mileage wise. I don't look at the M/Kwh, but imagine its about the same. Mine will charge up to 469 miles and that's it. I have 21" tires as well

I am now at 5,900 miles on my '25 AGT (20" wheels) and my lifetime average since taking delivery of the car on December 15, 2023 is 4.18 mi/kWh, or, 96% of EPA range. Furthermore, this past Thursday I made a 438 mile trip out to Ohio and only needed to stop once for 20 minutes at a 350kW EA charger to add 275 miles in 20 minutes (we arrived at the charger with around 200 miles remaining). I also used Drive Assist 95% of the route and it was rock solid minus two quick weird moments where it moved out of the lane briefly.

This car is simply an amazing piece of engineering. It drives like a dream, is efficient as heck, has astounding range and charges super quickly. Color me impressed.

My Dad has an AT (I have the AGT). When I drive his car, I routinely get well over 4.5 mi/kWh. He averages 3.75. So much of range is driver dependent. If you sat in the car and drove with me or my father I do not think anyone would say that our driving styles are terribly different, and yet clearly the way I am modulating the throttle, accelerating and using regenerative braking is far more efficient. I am definitely NOT a hyper-miler and my wife routinely tells me to "slow down and drive less aggressively." That said, I don't drive much above 75 mph ever on the highway and usually just cruise along in the middle lane at 72 and high speed highway miles will reduce your range in a huge way!

I've been driving EV's since 2011 and have found that they are more susceptible to varied driving styles for range than ICE vehicles. They also require a different way of applying the throttle and releasing it (using full regenerative braking) to maximize range...

Do you use the ACC? I use mine almost exclusively when on the interstate, even in Las Vegas, like on the beltway. I like the peace of mind that ACC affords while still keeping alert.

I’m in awe of the mileage people re getting. GT with 21 inch wheels here, have never gotten over 2.95m/kwh.. regularly in the 2.5 range at best with careful driving. are you people just driving straight downhill all day?

21s are much less efficient. But boy are they also so much more fun
