Hi all,
In my 2016 it has approx 48,000km. This winter season up here in Canada it has been -10C (14F) lately. In the summer we were getting range of about 150km on a full charge using AC (it was about 200km in summer when it was new). Now in the winter it dropped to about 125Km on the display but in actuality its can be as little as 100km or less. Its quite unnerving.
I have noticed that maybe the heat pump heating system has a problem? We don't really know at what temperate the HP turns off and the resistive heater turns on. Further sometimes the heat button light turns on, sometimes the AC light turns on... does anyone know what actually happens and how much energy they each use? and when to use them? I have seen the energy as high as 3-4kwh on the display with the temperature set to 20C and fan on low (1,2, or 3) setting.
Further when using the front (defrost) button, the energy use jumped to 6kwh and the hot air was really hot, seems the resistive heater only runs at 100% or nothing? Ouch! Even with the temperature set to 20C on low (1,2, or 3). This was today. Car parked in garage overnight. Then sat outside for 45 mins, outside temp -7C, no windchill, windows fogged up on the inside.
Lately the car is so unpredictable that we feel the need to charge almost every day even though the round trip for work is 20km all city (no hwy). Heaven forbid we get stuck in one of those horrible traffic jams.
Soulspy says battery SOH 100.6% doubtful! battery cells map top row shows 3 pinks with 4.0 and 5 blues 3.0, all of the grey squares below show 3.68. Any other valuable info from Soulspy I should look at?
Happy New Year to all!
