Day 1 - no pre departure heating, averaged 3.1 miles/kWh
Day 2 - pre departure heating (plugged in), averaged 3.8 miles/kWh
Unscientific for sure but the pre heating certainly made a difference. Unsure if it's the battery preheating or just the cabin temp or both. Suspect both as after pre heating the regen bar was fully available whereas half available the day before (both same SoC)
How were you preheating for this?
Starting climate from app using ‘start’?
Climate timer?
Charging location timer + climate timer?
