You will keep improving, my recommendation if you can take the ride, is to bump the tires up to the full 52psi, usually that gains you a couple more miles
Oddly your tires wear better too.
Also you can defog the windows without using much heat, just set the defroster for a low temperature and it will still defog but not use much juice to heat anything.
Also another option is to "idle" your car a 10 minutes, set it to eco, defrost, fan to low and plugged in and you should see minimal loss of capacity but it should get your heater core warmed up.
