The rear camera stays heated well, and rarely gets covered in snow.

Extra chilly today

Jan 18, 2025

Miles: 88
Temps: -18°F to +2°F
Total Energy (drive + park): ~45kWh
Total Efficiency: 514 Wh/mi
Expected range: ~238 miles

Notes:

The driving efficiency was 435Wh/mi (38kWh). For some reason the usage while parked kept increasing while I was stopped for a few hours with no heat on. The drop seemed to coincide with the battery getting colder (blue bar), but didn’t change when the battery warmed back up after driving a bit. I don’t believe I actually used 7kWh while parked because only the screen was on.

No passengers, Blizzak snow tires, no wheel covers, chill mode, custom drive setting, lower suspension, cabin set to roughly 65 when driving.
