Battery cooling: does that loss seem right?

This site may earn commission on affiliate links.
Here is my situation:
  • Outside temp is 70F
  • Cabin temperature was 102F. The car was parked for 4 hours, probably 3 of those in the sun.
  • 90kwh battery pack
My range was at 22% when I parked, down to 16% 4 hours later.

This seems like a lot to me or am I just being nervous because I may have to crawl home?
 
Door open slightly?

Keep checking with the app will keep it from going to sleep, making your concerns even worse.

I checked in person, I was that cautious...:)

interestingly, things remained steady after that, ie no additional loss for the next 5 hours or so. The weather/temps remained rough;y the same throughout the entire period...puzzling...let's see what happens today.

And yes, I made it home at a reasonable pace.
