New fill up :
780.5mi @ 60.36mpgUS
1255.8km @ 3.897L/100
90 day mpgUS @ 56.3

I switched to Torque (an Android app) with the following 8 gauges:
  • MPG
  • Accel Deg
  • Trip MPG
  • HV SOC
  • ICE Power
  • HV Current
  • Coolant
  • ICE Rev
I don't need anything else while driving. It permits me to baby the HV battery during the first few miles to be able to use SHM as soon as possible when needed.

ICE Power is just for curiosity and seeing 5-8hp @ 50mph (depends on terrain) is cool

It also permits to save trips and see the logs on a map Definitely I have to work on my 70-90km/h routine. My problem is SHM doesn't work well on faux plats. I'm trying to keep a more steady 50mph on faux plats.

Yesterday was 24°C = 75°F : I know I will love summer. Forecast is 13°C = 55°F for next 10 days

I'm far from Mégane's kilo tank... but working on it. I'm filling up only 50L = 13.2gal instead of 60L = 15.85gal ie I have to reach 3,1L/100 = 75.7mpgUS

Have fun,

Denis.
