That's unfortunate. I'm still looking for the 12.3" display, that's found on chinese and thai versions of the car for a possible retrofit. Would make the search easier i had PN for all the possible versions.
As discussed in a previous thread; the value you get is not totally accurate. It's a time based value, not actual degradation.
In any case, should be fine.
Just another reason not to kill even more aero with worse wheels.
It's difficult to actually measure the difference in real world, but the difference is there. Otherwise manufactureres wouldn't bother covering them up.
that's actually a common misconception. Aerodynamic properties of the wheel and wideness of tire play a significant role in consumption.
For example; tesla3 lr rws drops almost 10% of WLTP range when you upgrade to 19" wheels with more open design.
And the faster you drive, the more effect...
As mentioned above; at least for LFP car's the most accurate value seems to be to reset the board computer and check estimated range at 100%. That compared to WLTP range will give you an indication of actual degradation.
NMC cars seem to already report pretty accurate value from the carscanner.
I'd still say, that driving just like the rest of trucks isn't a bad thing though. As long as you stick to that and don't drive slow when there's no trucks or on the passing lane.
But yeah, not a good image for EVs for sure.
Both datas are relevant, because you can easily calculate available full charge energy of the battery. And thus calculate real SOH.
The problem with picking a longer journy is that there is just way way too much variables at play to say if the battery is still the same or not. You might do that...
As a driver you can fully charge the car + balance. And when the car is fully charged, immediatly go for a drive and run the battery completly. Resulting milage and consumption (along with energy spent on that trip) will give you a very nice indication on the actual energy battery has.
Of course you can measure SOH. Very accuratly at that.
Top charge to 100%+balance and then discharge to empty empty (BMS cuts off due to low voltage). The resulting discharged energy is your actual pack capacity. Actual pack capacity divided by nominal new pack = SOH in %.
And BMS can...
don't give too much stock into this info.
If you want to get real degradation (or close to it) reset board computer and check the range. Your actual range divided by WLTP range of your car will give you a better idea of degradation.
My suspesion is, that 51kWh cars include bottom buffer into...
