I rarely got the EPA rated range in my i3. My Leaf did and my Model S does it just fine though.Isn't it odd that no Tesla ever achieves its EPA range (including my S90D), but my BMW i3 routinely gets more range than its EPA rating?
And the BMW has no setting for charging to less than 100%; BMW has kindly provided more battery capacity than the rating so that it always has regen.
Do you think maybe Tesla is fudging the numbers a bit? Why is that?
BMW, Mercedes and Audi are certainly all behind at the moment, but I'm expecting that we'll have a lot more choices 3-5yrs from now!
