I was hoping someone could explain this for me. I almost got myself in a bind today.
I went on a one way 4 hour trip over the weekend and returned home today. I set my battery to charge to 100% and based on Conserve mode my estimated my range was 330 miles and in All Purpose it was 300 miles.
I started in Conserve mode and according to the Rivian estimate on the maps I would get home with about 60 miles of range left. About 1 hour into my trip I went ahead and switched to All Purpose. Per Rivian, I now would get home with just under 30 miles of range left.
As I was getting home Rivian estimated that I would get there with 8 miles of range left. I was still on All Purpose mode. When I had about 20 miles or so of range left I switched from All Purpose to Conserve mode.
Making the switch to Conserve mode, I expected to see the estimated range go up but it did not. Needless to say, I got home with 0 miles of range left. A little scary. I don't know if anyone experienced this on any of their trips.
I expected to have a bit of a buffer when making the switch from All Purpose to Conserve but this was not the case. Does anyone know why?
