See my attachment and do the math, promise it’s not hard.


Gen 2= yes
Gen 1= no

But honestly there is Volt stats (if you are lazy)

And of coarse the results of each complete charge is on the energy display when you get home.

It’s very simple to take kwhrs per mile and gas miles metrics
And calculate your respective “actual” combined MPGe metric
