Tried to fully charge my four-month old S100D at a supercharger over the weekend, and it would not charge to the full 335 mile stated range for a new S100D. It got to 333 miles and wouldn't charge the remaining couple miles -- the display continued to indicate it was still charging, but changed from amount of time remaining to charge of 5 mins to "calculating time remaining". After 22 mins like that, indicating it was charging but calculating time remaining, it still never got past 333 miles. This is in CA, on a nice 75 degree afternoon.
I understand the batteries lose some range capacity over time, but this car is new ... and it is already below advertised/stated full range. Two issues, either it never could reach full stated range of 335, or it could at time of delivery and already has lost 2 miles of charge range. That is concerning for the range over life of ownership. Curious have overs actually tried charging to full stated range (vs 90%) on a new S100, in the first 1-4 months, and got the full 335 miles?
I had a S85 from Dec 2015 thru mid-Dec 2018, when I traded in for a S100D. The 85 would charge to full range on the few occasions I tried, and over the three years lost about 2 total miles of range based on the range of a 90% charge - I only supercharged to full twice. Like with the prior car, over the past four months with the new S100D I've charged with nema plug in my garage overnight, about every two to three nights, at 40 amps, about half the time to about 80% ... sometimes less, and half the time to the 90% daily line. About three times on the new S I've used supercharging, and stopped at about 95-97% each time because it slowed so much near the end, and it wasn't worth the wait. This last weekend was first time I tried to get a full range charge.
