  • I can’t confirm, but there are two equally possible explanations. First is that the percentage is based on Ah instead of Wh. Korean cars do this, and therefore a percent at high soc can hold much more energy than a percent at low soc. Easily a 25% difference.

    Other thing is (the same as I suspected with my previous zoe) that the consumption meter does not include all the consumers in the car. It might only be measuring energy used by the motor inverter and simply ignoring (significant) energy needed to heat up the cabin.

    In a zoe, the displayed consumption stayed relatively the same, regardless if I did many short trips or a single longer one, even though the range you get from many short trips is way lower due to a bigger proportion of energy going towards reheating the cabin twice a day instead of just keeping in warm on a long drive.
