I did look at that when it was happening and it didn't correlate to anything I was feeling, like when it is in a full charge state. Those arc marks match with the limited regen. but not so much in the cold.
Could you please provide a picture and describe it? You could be right, battery could be cold, I'm not exactly sure. But I'd like to investigate it a bit further because in 22k miles of owning the car, I've never had this feeling before and not being able to predict when the car stops is disturbing the whole point of one pedal driving for me
I'll take a picture tonight if somebody else doesn't beat me to it. To be clear though, despite all that I said, I also find it a little unsettling every time it happens and wish we had blended braking to make the behavior consistent. All these warnings and gauges and techniques make it better than just guessing, but still, surprises while driving are not good.
You're correct, I went on an hour drive and kept an eye on it and was watching to see how long it took and it was slowly creeping down. Took basically the whole drive for my regen to. Become accessible.
It was included in the 2.3.0 release notes:
What, uh, speed were you going? I haven't seen that number before. Also, you need windshield washer fluid, bro.
Thanks for providing that.
There is a brief warning and a symbol. The regen part of the gauge looks different.
Silly iPhone doing a long exposure because it's dark. Caught me in between speeds.
I have never seen that light, actually, haha. I’ve never run low. Maybe I just don’t clean my windshield as much; that’s entirely possible.
2023 AT with 25k - So this accounts why last winter 3-3.3 mi/kwh and this winter1.8-2.2mi/kwh. Noted decrease in mi/kwh after recent updates. If so, can this be undone as it is significant impact on range/anxiety in long winter road trips with suboptimal level 3 charging infrastructure.
Huh? The behavior didn't change, the UI changed to show what's been happening all along.
I'm confused what you're saying. Regen has always been reduced at a high SoC or low temperatures. In all EVs with regen. That's just how current battery technology works - the battery pack can't safely accept the same amount of power when nearly full or too cold. All we're talking about here is an update to the gauge in the dashboard which actually shows when this is happening, rather than leaving you guessing. I'm not saying you don't have lower efficiency, but I am saying it's not related to this particular change that you're responding to. I am also curious if you've tried actually comparing the real world range you get now vs what you saw last year, because my gut tells me (really I have no evidence, just a feeling) that the math for the efficiency reading in the UI is what changed recently, more than the actual efficiency.
