Please refer to 3 attached images. I am not sure what is going on but can concur with other OPs where ICE just turns on whenever it feels like. Whether I call for heat few weeks ago or not and even when my vehicle is quite new I have noticed this behavior. Nothing to complain but there seems to be no rhyme or reason on why and when ICE will kick on.
With that said, yesterday was my first long drive of 200 miles round trip on NJ TPK. I cruised at high speeds with all features functional and climate enabled both times. On turnpike, I switched to HV mode and ICE was groaning along, sometime barely noticeable. Can attest to cars decent noise isolation. When on local roads for last leg to reach destination for 4-10 miles, switched off HV mode.
As you see from first picture odometer is 553 - when I started from gas station where I got full tank. Attendant was just surprised and asked me if I indeed need regular gas 3 times. And after 3.6 gallons that it took to fill up, he just shook his head. I had to tell him that total is just 7 gallons.
Start - 553
Range EV - 50.4, HV - 554 (really)
End of leg one mileage - 656
Range EV - 35.4, HV - 383 (still higher than total published numbers)
Return to home mileage - 752
Range EV - 18.9, HV - 211
I am surprised/confused to make any sense of these numbers. After reading some other post I see that I could have taken pictures of center screen with more information and plan to take pictures next time I drive that same course.
Does anyone have similar experience or have any explanation on what is happening here?
Thanks in advance.
