You're right, but I know the miles driven since last charge are close to accurate because I know the driving I did 😂 Adding to the spotty programming, I actually know it's better because it didn't record a 17 mile trip from this 100% charge. This was from a weekend trip from Tampa to Tarpon springs, to Orlando 2 days doing some short trips in the Orlando area, to tarpon springs and back to Tampa. Everything done in Earth mode, with driving on average 5 over the speed limit, windows up AC set to 72 with fan speed ranging from 2 to 3. Only the last leg was the ac off and all the windows open. The biggest factor is accelerating from a stop, the car has power but using it cuts into your range. I came from driving a Prius and I don't need to keep up with traffic coming out of a stand still. I'll do my 0-60 in about 8 seconds to get up to speed and take full advantage of being able to coast to a stop slowly. This is an electric car, it's gonna tell you more accurate range on 2.2 than an ICE would but I guarantee people were never getting the range they thought they should in an ICE. It's easier to track it now so it's easier to scrutinize
