So I happened to be charging today and I happened to switch range mode on, and within a couple of seconds I noticed my max range jumped up by a couple of miles. I was a little surprised and thought I was seeing things so I switched it back, and the rated range dropped. I cycled it a number of times and it was very consistent though it took up to about 30 seconds to show updated rated miles on the display.
I played a bit with it driving and sitting in the driveway after, and I could get it to drop on the switch out of range mode, but it stopped there and would not go back up when switching it back to range mode. (Edit: I think this is due to the ~1kWh/3 mile hysteresis the display uses to not increase the range displayed every time the car goes into regen.)
I'm curious if anyone else found any other settings the directly effect the displayed rated range?
