norbury.brook Posted October 9, 2023 Share Posted October 9, 2023 Greetings everyone, I have just acquired a pre-owned MX-30 and would want to inquire about some aspects based on the experiences of others. I must express my disappointment upon seeing a displayed range of just 145 kilometers with a full charge, which I find to be insufficient. I hypothesized that a temperature of around 25 degrees Celsius would be optimal. During my 260 km journey from the point of purchase to my residence, I observed an average fuel usage of around 0.17 km per kilowatt-hour (Kwh) while driving at speeds ranging from 110-115 km/h. Based on my understanding, if the available battery capacity is around 30 kWh, it would have been reasonable to expect a range of approximately 177 km. However, we arrived at the DC fast charger with a remaining distance of 8 km, having traveled approximately 150 km. The temperature of the battery seems to be within the upper three-fourths range, indicating a high level, even during periods of parking. Is this considered within the range of typical behavior or circumstances? 3. High Noise Levels during L2 Charging: I observed that the sounds produced in my garage during L2 charging were louder compared to my previous electric vehicle, a Ford Focus Electric, which I just exchanged. I am curious to know whether this level of noise is typical for electric vehicles during charging processes. The front seat cushion bolsters cause discomfort in the hip region. Is this observation noticed by others? I express my gratitude for your assistance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doncaster34 Posted October 9, 2023 Share Posted October 9, 2023 At a 90% charge, I am able to achieve a distance of 170 kilometers. The anticipated range will vary based on one's driving style. 2) This value seems to be somewhat elevated, in my view. I have not seen the battery temperature above 50% of its maximum capacity. 3) The device emits certain auditory signals during its initialization process, however, it afterwards operates silently. 4) This matter is subjective, in my opinion.

bl52krz Posted October 9, 2023 Share Posted October 9, 2023 In the prevailing ambient temperatures of around 20 - 25 degrees, the electric vehicle achieves a driving range of 200 kilometers when fully charged. The Guessometer demonstrates a high level of accuracy, consistently aligning with the expected range. The temperature of the battery has not exceeded half of its maximum capacity. There are audible sounds emitted throughout the charging process, however they cannot be characterized as very loud. However, I often recharge my device outside. The seats provide a high level of comfort for my own preference. Superior to my Subaru. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
norbury.brook Posted October 9, 2023 Author Share Posted October 9, 2023 Thank you for providing the information. Could you kindly inform me about the fuel economy achieved under city driving conditions, characterized by frequent stops and starts at an average speed of 60 km/hr? Additionally, I would also appreciate information about the fuel efficiency observed during highway or motorway travel, when speeds often range between 100-120 km/hr.

norbury.brook Posted October 9, 2023 Author Share Posted October 9, 2023 I would like to provide an update about the range of my vehicle. I am pleased to report that the range has increased somewhat. Upon acquiring the vehicle from the auto dealer with a full charge, the range was measured to be 145 kilometers. After another full charge at home, the range has now reached 157 kilometers. The computer may provide estimations based on historical driving habits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doncaster34 Posted October 9, 2023 Share Posted October 9, 2023 In the United Kingdom, there exists an alternative metric for assessing fuel efficiency, namely in terms of miles per gallon (mpg). According to our computational analysis, the average energy efficiency of our computer is 4.4 miles per kilowatt-hour (kWh) when considering a combination of urban and rural driving conditions. The electric vehicle achieves an energy efficiency of 3.5 to 4 miles per kilowatt-hour (kWh) while traveling on the freeway at a speed of 70 miles per hour. The conversion of these units to kilowatt-hours per 100 kilometers may be performed using Google. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FireCar Posted October 9, 2023 Share Posted October 9, 2023 To initiate a reset of the on-board computer and restore mileage measurements to their default values, it is recommended to fully charge the automobile to 100% and thereafter disconnect the negative terminal from the battery for a duration of 20 minutes. The measurement is within the range of 206-209 kilometers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
