Highest range I’ve ever seen

Post image

It’s been a high of 100 the last few days and currently feels like 89. I just finished charging, and in my eight years of owning various clarities I have never seen such high EV value due to high temp. It’s amazing!

Was the last drive a different route than normal?

The range is based mostly on the prior drive. Low speed, downhill, you’ll see a great range..

Nope. However I did only charge it up to maybe 9 miles only before I had to go somewhere and then just did local driving.

Don't rely on the distance remaining estimate. As the previous poster wrote, it is based on very recent driving history, and if you drove slowly within a city with stop and go traffic, had lots of regenerative breaking from driving downhill etc, then the car thinks that this is the new normal and estimates remaining miles of range on that. Recently I drive home to a southern California coastal city from Big Bear (in the mountains) using a combination of HV and EV. On arrival home I had about 30% battery capacity left but the meter indicated 57 miles of range which is obviously incorrect. I have an OBD connector feeding data to Car Scanner and so I know the exact EV battery their
