Welcome back warm weather

Here in the south we're into the mid 20s (Centigrade). My GOM on 100% is showing 244 miles. My (calculated) figure is around 220.
 
Good grief, in an SR? I don't think I ever saw that last summer, not even when I drove south. Mind you, by definition if I have gone south I have been tanking on motorways, so there's that.
 
The SR GOM amazes me as well. My ER figure is ‘only’ 308-312 - and I live south-ish. What do LR people have showing at 100%?
 
The SR GOM, at least in my car, is surprisingly reliable, at least once you understand how it thinks and how it's working things out. I've never had a nasty surprise when I've driven it down low, it never suddenly recalibrates and takes 20 miles off your remaining range.
 
Yes it's an SR. This is the current state:

I might have seen that in mine once or twice in midsummer. But it was at 197 miles this morning, so I'm not complaining.

Hang on, no. I might have seen over 220 miles once or twice at 100%, but not at 92%!

At the moment, 268 miles with 15C ambient (at the start of the day), will increase when summer gets fully going.

Very rough rule of thumb: 50 miles between SR and LR and 50 miles between LR and ER (summer).
 
I don't know whether it's just that we're cooler up here, or my right foot, or THAT DAMN UNDERTRAY CAUSING AERODYNAMIC INEFFICIENCY, but I never get that sort of number and my battery is (allegedy) at 100% after 8,000 miles.

I looked under mine after a few months, and it was bent down in the middle - but hasn't really caused any issue - maybe a few kw/mile? - but yes I did get 229 miles when charging to 100% in recent days (21k miles) - I still pay 4.5p / Kwh (finishes this month) via EDF, so the car essentially runs for semi-free (free charging at work also + solar home battery), since covid I've just gone 110% resilience. Having said this in the winter its down to 150miles /100% battery (a bit less, as did only get 131 miles when less than zero - between 2 tesla stations- berwick to harrogate recently)
 
Not sure about average speed, does that take into account all the time I was stopped. In other words is it total distance over time?
I'm sure the average of the time I was actually driving would have been higher. Next time I'll take a GPS with me and find out.
Most of the time while I was moving it would have been around 70, a bit over, a bit below.

EDIT! Calculator says distance over time. 30.3 X 60/46 = 39.5
That accounts for traffic lights and the time it took to drop my passenger off.
So average speed, is not average driving speed, it's trip average
