Really? Maybe my knowledge of EV ranges is way out of wack. I was assuming avg ranges look much more like ~200mi on a full battery in real-world conditions, and that a 30-min charge usually only gets you 80%. Sounds like I’m at least somewhat misinformed.
- floxy 1y agoAssuming OP has a Ford Mustang Mach-E, RWD, Long Range model, you might expect: 286 miles at 70 MPH 249 miles at 75 MPH 232 miles at 75 MPH with 2kW of heating https://evkx.net/models/ford/mustang_mach-e/mustang_mach-e_long_range_rwd/rangeandconsumption/ https://evkx.net/models/ford/mustang_mach-e/mustang_mach-e_l... ...that model seems to take about 45 minutes to charge from 10-80%: https://evkx.net/models/ford/mustang_mach-e/mustang_mach-e_long_range_rwd/chargingcurve/ https://evkx.net/models/ford/mustang_mach-e/mustang_mach-e_l...
- slg 1y agoI tend to get better range than that, I'd like to claim it is my driving style, but more realistically it is because I live in Southern California so the battery is generally at ideal temperature, I often don't need heat/AC, and probably most importantly I'm not sure if I have ever driven 70+ mph for 300 consecutive miles without hitting traffic. Also when I do road trips, I'll tend to do multiple shorter stops which according to that link means I'm closer to the "optimum charging area" than going 10%-80% in one sitting, so that might have caused me to overshoot that estimate a little. So beyond that slight amendment of switching that one ~30 minute charging stop to two ~15 minute stops, the answer to ketzo's question is "yes, really", but as the saying goes, your mileage may vary.
