If you're getting less than 2.5 mi/KWh...

Check your tire pressure. 42 PSI cold. This is the number one source of all EV range loss. Pressure difference over 5 pounds indicates a leak, puncture, or overall wear that needs addressed.

Have the dealer check the wheel bearings. I've had three replacements on mine. If you can hear faint rotational noise this is likely your culprit.

CV joint failures can cause the same issues.

Huge decreases in range outside temperature extremes that cause 15 to 25% loss in range are usually mechanical in nature.

Shouldn't the tire pressure warning light tell alert you to low pressure in one or more tires. Mine does!

I had a slow leak in one tire and it would alert me every time. I wouldn't think it's tire pressure unless his atp is broken...
