Have had the Bz for the last 3 months. I have put about 4500miles on it over this period.
Here is something I have noticed at charging. In the early days, I was able to charge to a reported 270 miles. It was maybe 40deg ( 4C in new money) for the first few months with sometimes temperatures dipping into low 30deg ( it is California). In the last few weeks I am only able to get it to charge to 230 miles as reported in the system, but its reporting to be 100%. It has actually been warmer over the last month or so. Not sure the reason for this. I am also not sure if this is less mile or more miles, but the current reporting by the system is more accurate. Definitely was not getting the 270 reported miles from earlier.

Additionally, I am able to achieve a 1 to 1.05 of reported capacity to miles. ie Charge gauge reports 1 mile of charge and I am getting slightly less than 1 mile distance....not too bad.

Is there a way to see if there has been an update ?

Thoughts ?

These readings are on the FWD version?

I believe the drop in miles has nothing to do with the temps. The range number on the dash is calculated based on your driving habits, also sometimes referred to as a guess o meter. It's not unusual for it to be more accurate now that you've driven it for awhile.

That makes sense. It seem pretty accurate now with the range and mileage. Also not a wilting flower when I drive. Usually in the left carpool/HOV lane doing 80+.

i have the same with mine. was 220 full at the beginning now shows 199 with heat on

Recently saw an update now app shows both estimated miles (Range) with heat/ac on and without utility on range.
