Oof that efficiency is rough! Good to know... might avoid towing based on that lol. Only time I've seen mine that high (like 58-59 kWh/100) was on a day with record lows around like -15 with high winds and a 70mph highway. I also found Google's estimates were way off at that level (like 10%+)

@@TheRealSpuff it was brutal.. I wouldn’t have minded as much if I was alone, but it was rough making such slow progress with the baby. I do wish google would adjust better to your recent efficiency, during regular driving it’s usually pretty accurate.

@@LandLectric do you wish you could put in your own consumption like ABRP, or maybe reset Google to tell it “hey something changed reset me to this new reality”, or maybe just some capability to recognize when a trailer is hooked up and then radically start to reassess consumption?

[@LandLectric]

@ it would definitely be helpful, fortunately for me I know to always manually plan as well to be safe. I wish google would do a better job of adjusting its estimates because they generally are pretty accurate. The car knows a trailer is hooked up too, but it doesn’t seem to adjust estimated arrival percentage based on hooking up the trailer.
