Rented a Chrysler Pacifica PHEV minivan. I’ve been charging up daily to drive family around town. Battery drains insanely fasts like 20% within a mile. Wondering if it’s this specific vehicle/brand, overused rental car or reality of EVs. It says 31 miles of range but in no way is that realistic. What do you think?
Does the Pacifica have a remote start button on the key fob which you could use while the vehicle is plugged in? Barring that, couldn’t you just run out to the car, start it while it’s plugged in, and go back inside for a while?
