I'm planning on letting my battery run down as far as possible to try to get a realistic range. How low can the battery drain before it goes into reserve or some kind of limp home mode?
Or does it just stop :) ?

Did you try? Turtle mode comes up when the range is 0km. Switch off the car, on again, and drive for another few km. Then finished for good.

After switching the car off and on again (I had to get out of the car and lock it) I drove the last km to my parking spot and charged it again.

My lowest out on the road at a EA where none of the stations worked, (used a sheetz 110 outlet ?) would not recommend, did find that parking garages and farmers markets were a help in a pinch.

That's the spirit! :clap: Over here 7 miles is still a lot of range considering the amount of charging piles.

Lowest I have had mine is 8% battery, it was showing 17 miles remaining after an emergency trip to collect my son from his uni digs before lockdown in Jan. When we left his place it was predicting 12% at the end of the journey, but I suspect the cold had an impact on the range.

Yeah, learned if you are far away from home and see a fast charger, you use a fast charger, ?
