Except....that hasn’t been my experience at all for the last 6 years. I started at about 102 miles (almost as it was advertised) and six years later, I get about 80ish.
Cold range has been lower over the years for sure, sometimes forcing me to plug the car in every night during really cold spells for charging while I sleep. Hot temperatures even near 100 haven’t really had that much of an impact over the years. About 60 - 78 is the ideal temperature, which means most of the morning commutes are at ideal temperature in the South.
Also, EV’s are the opposite of ICE vehicles in that range is really quite good in slower traffic situations, and worse at high speeds when there is no traffic.
Thanks for sharing your real world experiences. This is much more valuable than car maker claims. It is not unlike all the people who believe they need to buy a giant generator to power their house. I was one of them once, we had a much larger fuel hog generator to begin with. So I do understand what you were saying about range.
