LOL - can’t beat a short trip on a gentle downhill slope.

This would give me a pretty handy range of 4,425 miles.

Yes, I have down hill when I go anywhere, then back uphill to get home. I love the charging message when I am going downhill.

LOL, for 4400 miles of range, you'd think the app could do better than, "Very Good!".

I’m not doing too good with the i5 eDr40. I think the cold weather is to blame for the lower result of 2.2 mi/kWh

That's good! It means there is more juice left for you to have fun with.

Today, I let my son have a fun drive. We went out to the rez, where there are no cops. I set the sport display on the infotainment so he could see the torque, HP, revs, and motor temp. He maxed the HP but not the torque as he stopped after he got to 100mph. My husband would have been shitting his pants. I love this car so much.

Three things to say about your post:
  1. Yes, we all love some good ol' mpg numbers!
  2. By the look of that screen shot, you better plug your phone into your car, and fast!
  3. Man, I can't remember the last time I got more that 16 mpg. Very nice mpg number for your car.

This “X% of the community have similar consumption” is useless. They should tell the percentile instead.

Partway down the hill from my home, looking out over the slough that leads to Puget Sound. This is why I will never have good efficiency. I never quite gain back the range going downhill that I lose going uphill.

Sport mode in a 25 mph zone. That's kind of funny.

Not bad but I will say that I do mostly highway miles in eco. I had a friend get car sick from launch control and need to go home after one of my better pulls but that was after I got the 4.4 number 🤣😈

Sorry for your friend, but that made me LOL into my coffee. These M60’s are so completely schizophrenic - I love it!
