[QUOTE="stanwagon, post: 24921, member: 8361"] I have had the car for a while now and have figured out all gauges. There are some issues because I live atop an 800-foot hill. After a charge, if I should reset the trip odometer, it will not recognize the gain in kWh from my initial descent. GM programming does not allow negative numbers. Bottom line, I am getting the numbers I need and I can report 4.2 mi/kWh since purchase in June. That is excellent and way above the rating of 3.2. That would be a 357 mile range, except of course it will decrease in the upcoming colder months. Maybe I can get 4.0 0r 3.9 for the year, which will he impressive, given that 3.9 was the rating for the much smaller Bolt. The gauge tied to the current trip always starts at 3.2. If one goes only downhill that 3.2 will slowly rise, but the true answer since 0 kWh have been used should be negative, or infinite. But I can deal with it all -- because another window shows the exact kWh used and miles driven -- and am getting the numbers I need. I keep Trip 2 with no reset, so that is my lifetime rate.
