Following up, I made my commute yesterday (for the first time in ages) and managed 3 mi/kWh (!!) on the way there (no wind), and 2.4 mi/kWh on the way home (15-25mph head/crosswind). 2.71 mi/kWh round-trip.

60mph when I could on the way down, 70+ home. Have a significant hill to climb/descend both directions as well.

Sidenote - it appears the penultimate s/w release made the regen back-off less aggressive, meaning more regen for longer duration.

Any elevation? That sounds like a 1.9 m/kWh trip for my truck

From home .. starts at sea level, go up over a hill (1500’ climb?) and descent, then sea level all the way to work (another 25ish miles).

Took another highway home. A lot of flat + hilly elevation change (plus headwind), -then- the same hill, then flat home.
