    I have noticed that the stated ev milage after completing a power up is lower that the milage stated on the entune app (after said app. communicates with the car). Any ideas why this difference exists?

    thanks.

    Yeah, best I can tell, the app’s Guesstimatron doesn’t try to take into account climate control and such, whereas the car’s is at least a better guess. The app doesn’t have as much information to go on.

    Turn off you climate control you will see an instant increase on GOM. A better place to see the difference is Drive Monitor 2.
    2nd line is EV range without climate control, the bottom line is EV range with climate control.

    What’s wild is that I’ve rarely seen much difference in the GoM’s estimates when I turn the air conditioner on, even when >100F...

    Mine is nothing. Have you seen one from the manual? 12 miles difference with or without using air conditioning system. Of course, this PRIME is also getting 24.5miles/kWh, That's roughly 150 miles of EV range from a full charge. Dream on.:ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:
