    Range Issues?

    Thanks, I've been going a fairly meticulous job of tracking that sort of thing. The range has improved quite a bit with warmer weather. But I live in the mountains - fairly remote, so flat roads are hard to find. I've never seen. My absoulte best miles per kwh is about 3.5, average with the...

    Range Issues?

    Thanks, for the comments. The range has improved somewhat as the weather has improved. I don't pre-condition as the car sits in a heated garage, but that is another thing that never would have occurred to me. I live in the mountains, it doesn't get super cold, but 30-45 is normal in the winter...

    Range Issues?

    Thank you all for all the comments. Some are very insightful, some are no so. I was really trying to see if anyone else is experience the issues as I am. While I don't seem to hear of anyone else having as severe of an issue as I do, it also doesn't sound like many get the supposed average...

    Range Issues?

    Range Issues?

    I understand and expect to pay a performance penalty. The only one I've really have is temps have been 40-50 so far, but the car is kept in a heated garage. My main issue is that the advertised range is 238, I was never told the performance penalties for any of the above would be so severe.

    Range Issues?

    Thanks for the reply, I'm well aware of the tools. And The area I live in is hilly, don't really have an area to do you test. The problem is that GM doesn't mention that the performance penalties are so severe for not perfect conditions.

    Range Issues?

    I'm having significant range issues with my Bolt. I can only count on about 140 miles. I do most rural hwy driving 55-60mph 70-140 mile round trips. Anyone else experiencing this? Not getting too much help from Chevy. Update: Thanks to all respondents. My range has improved significantly with...
