I had a week of urban short drives, and tried to get the best efficiency as possible.

This is the best I achieved. 3.8miles/kwh and 101.7 miles driven, with 2% battery remaining.

Hi,
I assume you started at 100% charge?

Hmm, I can better that. 8-) Over the last 650 miles or so my Honde e (with 16" wheels) has averaged 4.5 miles/kWh (so that's a typical range of around 140 miles per 100% charge).

This is a good time of the year for getting the best range out of an electric car, so enjoy it while the summer lasts!

Yeah, for me it's a very Goldilocks time to have an EV (maybe I lack lead boots?)

Keithr,
Have you ever proved the theory of 140 miles to 0% @4.5? or to low %
Mine did 110 miles @4.1Kw/m and was done to 5%, it would also appear 50-0% is smaller than 100-50%.

Yes. Not long after I bought the car, I charged to 100% and drove for 130 miles, arriving back home with 7% state of charge and the car estimated a remaining range of 11 miles. It was an average of 4.9miles/kWh, but that included driving at faster speeds (so fewer kWh available due to more wasted heat in the battery because of higher current draw). See this thread
