We charged up to 90% when we left st Mary mt for Bozeman. In car navigation showed we should arrive at Helena supercharger with over 30% remaining. We drove at 55 mph on a 70 mph highway. Temps were mid 40s and it was raining but not a monsoon.
Over the first hour we watched in increasing consternation as the charge remaining indicator for Helena moved down in fits and starts to 4% before we decided to divert to great falls supercharger, adding an hour to our travel time.
Over three years of Tesla driving I have never seen the remaining charge estimate be so unreliable. Could something be wrong with the car (MYLR)? If the car knows distances, speeds, and elevations for major roads, how could it get the charge estimate so wrong? Any advice?
