Just curious as to what your ride height was on the road.
It was originally in High mode however it lowers automatically at highway speeds for improved aero. To what extent or equivalent setting I do not know.

On 55 zones, I would average 60mph. On 70 zones, I would stay at 70 unless there was a need to pass. Most things under 55 I would be only 5 over. No zones on the route were over 70 posted limit.
My math would suggest about 65% at 60 mph 35% at 70 mph? That would be consistent with the Out Of Spec efficiency at 70mph of 2.4 miles / kwh => 416 wh/mi. If you ran about 65% at 60 and the rest at 70, and since it takes 36% more energy to overcome drag at 70 than at 60, with about 60% of the energy being used to overcome the drag force at highway speeds, that would translate into 341 wh/mi at 60 and 416 wh/mi at 70 (the OOS number).

That is probably not far off considering how many times I65 adjusted from anywhere in to 50mph to 70mph rated limit and that is where the bulk of the milage came from.

At highway speeds it will lower to medium for comfort or low for better aerodynamics. There's a setting for which in your profile.

I’m assuming standard mode is Comfort mode! My round trip from FL to NJ/PA was around 420wh. The only difference I noticed is 100f temp ( 105 -108 feels like) back in July during the heat wave across East Coast. Oh…another difference was no wrap :)
Impressive as you were going uphill 😁

Actually the 420wh reading was for the round trip. Was at 75mph most of the time unless I had to overtake big rigs or slow down in construction zones.
