Miles vs. Percentage in Front (dashboard) screen

[fisheral]

Today I drove my car about 40 miles at 1.6mi/kWh using Lucid Nav, but the range on arrival still said 300 miles by the time I reached my destination. I don’t see how that’s possible taking my actual consumption into account.

Possibly key question: was this 40 miles shown WHILE using the on-board navigation That’s what I’m gathering is the “magic sauce” that offers real-world predictions. Using Apple or Google or ABRP won’t do the trick….it seems!?

Correct. Carplay and Android Auto do have some limited ways to acquire vehicle info, but Lucid (and most others) do not use them.

I’ve yet to charge in the wild, but continue to gather the tools/knowledge for my first big trip…. so on that note, what I’m getting from Borski‘s last comment is that the “range on arrival” would not be for arrival at the next charging stop along the way, but only for arrival at my ultimate dialed-in destination, perhaps after one or two charging stops along the way (?).

It will show you the SOC at the next stop, and it will automatically add charging stops along the way as needed. I usually confirm that those stops are needed and/or have good PlugShare ratings, but that's how that works.

Related: I presume that on a long road trip, it won’t always assume I’m returning home right away?

It will always show you a return SOC estimate, unless you have multiple stops in your route. It doesn't do anything with that return SOC; it's purely informational.

Yes, using Lucid nav

There’s no way that this is possibly taking into account my current driving. I’ve been used 20% of my battery at 1.9 mi/kWH, yet according to the lucid nav, I’ll be getting well over 4 miles/kWh for the remainder of my battery charge. That would be fantastic summer efficiency, never mind mid-winter. Also, my efficiency this entire winter has been 3.08 mi/kWh, so it can’t be using that either.

I think we are all on the same page now. The car accurately assesses the battery usage your CURRENT drive will take using your mi/kWh on that drive. It does NOT, however, use the mi/kWh of your current drive in calculating how many miles of range you will have at your destination. It appears to revert back to the EPA rated efficiency numbers and gives your miles remaining at your destination based on the battery SOC.
