As I understand it, the "range remaining" adjusts to the type of driving you are doing. Any idea how often it adjusts?
I usually drive around town and am used to seeing 50-60 miles of range remaining after driving for a while. When I jumped on the freeway a couple of times, I was shocked to see "range remaining" of about 35 miles after driving only about four miles. I think my brain took that to mean that every four miles I drove would deplete the range remaining by 20 miles, leaving only about 7 miles of real range remaining, but now I realize that it was probably adjusting and I could have actually driven about 35 more miles at freeway speeds.
I'd like to better understand how it makes these calculations, is that documented anywhere?
Thanks,
Jenn
