If you "sneak", you can also achieve such values. 50mpg.

Did I get that right?
As of right now, there are a lot of estimates. The current state of charge is actual data pulled from the car. You give them your VIN so they can connect. I use it for a history if I ever resell the car. I wouldn’t buy a car that was regularly fast charged to 100%. I think of it like Car Fax for EVs. Actual battery degradation would be a great feature to add. They are a Seattle startup, so who knows what they will be able to add in the future. They don’t have every manufacturer set up, either.

Garage List
I'm not sure if it's due to the weather getting warmer or because I'm driving in B mode now instead of D mode (or maybe both), but I'm getting better mileage now. I've noticed that my round trips are up to 3.6 mi/kWh or more (up from 3.4 in April).

I've finally gotten used to B mode and have started using it. Took a little getting used to, but now that I'm used to it, I really like it. It just feels natural now, like the way a car should respond to the accelerator.
