Is something wrong? 90% == 293 miles

Mostly 40 - 50 mph roads. No, I don't make it a habit of driving below the speed limit (+ 10%) unless the car in front of me presents a barrier. I mix that with interstate driving (70 mph) several times a week. The climate here is mild most of the year, so I don't need much from the air conditioner or heat pump. I use max regenerative braking of course. And I'm not the guy everyone honks at because I'm holding up traffic.

I think the AC is a huge drain on efficiency for those of us using it so hard as it was a very warm spring/summer/fall for a lot of us. I’m thinking as well the Gravity has a very narrow sweet spot for temps that make it happy. Like from mid 70s to upper 60s. Which of course would mean no or little AC usage. We have to get OoS or Tom out your way to get those numbers!

Oh - one more thing. It's leased, so if anyone wants it when the lease is up... (which would be December 2028)

I've never reset Trip B. Over the 10 months we've owned our Gravity GT we've averaged 2.98 miles/kWh. Ours is the 5-seater with 21"/22" wheels, so I think EPA is 407. Taking our average of 2.98 times the 123 kwH battery pack, we're looking at 367 miles of range. Kind of disappointing, to be honest, but it is what it is. We don't drive it hard, but do a lot of short trips, mostly rural roads and highways, with occasional long road trips at 70mph.

Note: The tire pressure display on the dash always read 42 psi. When I put an actual tire gauge on them, they were mostly 38 psi. Not sure how much of a difference that might make.

Researched the tire pressure comment. The miles/kwh drop from a true 42 to 38 equates to only 1 - 2%.

If anyone on the thread is around eastern Massachusetts, the Natick Lucid has a thing on Saturday. I plan to stop in.
