200+ mile range!?

[Stoob]

Charged my 2020 ZS Exclusive at home (7kWh) from about 90 mile range. As expected, took 3 hours then went on for 2 hours at nominal charge (0.33 kWh), then 1 hour at 0.04 kWh. When I started the car this morning, it showed 199 miles range. It has always been 168, it’s published maximum. Parked up for 4 hours (sunny afternoon, not under cover, about 22°C). When I came back it was reading 208 miles range.
What’s going on?

You obviously charged with E5 electrons from Shell not E10 ones from your supermarket.

I am guessing you reset the overall consumption and the range is based on the running average so with hot waether it went up. Others who know I'm sure will comment.

Sounds also like you also did a balancing charge at 100% to minimise the differences between cells.

“Reset the overall consumption”?
I haven’t reset anything but I did have it in the garage to check an issue with the granny charger not working. After they had had it, the first charge I did showed the 3 hours of 0.33kWh - presumably balancing. I know they reset several parameters then. Subsequently, I left it with them again to try and solve the same problem (which they had not fixed) and this (supercharge) was the first time I have charged it since then.

They don't call it a Guess O Meter for nothing.
