![]() I finally opened my battery pack, and measured each of the 72 cells. Electric braking is weaker, and battery degradation happens faster and faster as the miles rack up. Engine is on longer, motor runs less long. Mpg at 100k miles, with knowing how to drive efficiently was 44mpg.ĭespite me driving better, mpg gets worse. Mpg at 94k miles, right before the big drop, was 46mpg. Mpg at 30k miles while not knowing how to drive efficiently was 48mpg. A poor state of charge, charges to the first line, and even when pushing, might not reach to the second line anymore. A normal state of charge charges to the 2nd bar. The 2019 model has an indicator how far the battery charges on a relative long stretch of road using the engine to propel and charge.Ī good state of charge should go to the 3rd bar. I'm fairly sure had I known how to drive the FFH when I bought it, my avg fuel numbers would exceed 50mpg. Anyone who sees below 42mpg avg, either lives in the arctics or desert with maxed out climate control, drives like a maniac, or has a degraded battery. The biggest performance and mpg losses, happened around the 100k mark. It's hard to tell from the cell voltage, but an avg voltage of 3.65 vs 3.8 means a decent chunk of my capacity is gone. I have 122k miles on it, and my battery has about 1/3rd of the performance, and range left. Waldo, my 2019 model did a lot of highway, and had a few times the battery down to almost zero, due to the ac being on with the car on (engine not running).
