So many naysayers... I appreciate the roundness of your Big Number.

4.9 m/kwh is pretty impressive - i usually hover around 3 - 3.5.

My life time average is 3.9 with 37K miles on my 2022 RWD. About 50/50 city and hwy. Pays to live in a temperate flat area because im definitely not babying it.

Makes total sense. I also live in an area where it seems every other city has "Hills" in its name.

It won't get that range unless you're consistently driving at optimal surface-speed streets in eco. The GOM is a *guess* o meter and will vary depending on temp, speed, etc.
You can expect to get something like the attached chart if you're driving optimal conditions (this is for an AWD SEL, Limited will be less real world).
Learn to read mi/kwh instead of the GOM. In the winter it's going to be lower, etc.
***You most definitely WILL NOT get 400 miles while traveling at highway speeds on a trip*** Do >>NOT<< rely on that. Consider using https://abetterrouteplanner.com/, preferably with an OBD2 uplink, but even it's default assumptions will be better than the GOM.

Ha, having driven electrics for 8 years now I'm intimately familiar with the nature of the range estimate. I just thought this sub would appreciate Big Number.

Yeah it's weird that this person assumed your ignorance. That's the internet for you.

Where did the chart come from? Is it estimated or collected data? I’m assuming flat surface, room temperature, optimal conditions for each point?

GOM means nothing. I just had 387 miles with AWD.

Yeah I get around 475km (77kWh battery) when 100% charged, but effectively it’s more like 430-450 but still pretty good

God damn...

Looks like your in Eco mode. I charged up 100% and it said 324 but just driving a short distance it dropped to like 294

I just charged to 100% for the first time since purchase (about 6 weeks ago) for a trip we are taking today. Was surprised to see 643km, and switched it to miles to share since I believe most people here are American.
We use it as a daily commuter, about 15 miles each way, with 1/3 of that on the highway (about 60-70 mph). We are definitely gentle drivers.
Pretty exciting to see! Our first electric was a 2016 leaf with ~180km range new, so 640km is very welcome.
Ok but how much did you really get though
This is really the important thing. That guessometer is never right XD.
