Overall numbers for the week - (combined from previous posts, plus two new)

5 mile drive - 1.16 kwh - 232 wh/mile
7 mile drive - 1.58 kwh - 226 wh/mile
9 mile drive - 2.01 kwh - 223 wh/mile
10 mile drive - 2.21 kwh - 221 wh/mile
11.7 mile drive - 2.59 kwh - 221 wh/mile (new)
9.7 mile drive - 2.15 kwh - 222 wh/mile (new)

Looks like changing the oil from 75w/90 synthetic to Synchromesh improves efficiency about 10% consistently.
