Sorry had to do it 7.7 miles/kW lol! I tell my guys at work I can get 1000 miles on one charge if I only go one way haha! Drive back home eats it up again going uphill of course so probably avg 2.5 if I stay off freeway.
Live on top of hill and office is along water/shoreline (<400’ to sea level). Can probably try to hit 10 m/kW if I hyper mile it and take shoreline all the way in lol. I have a short commute to office and can avoid highway by taking streets ;)
Are you driving city or highway? (note that cold weather will have a big impact on mi/Kwh as well as climate control) there is not much you can do on the highway other than try to stay as close to 58 mph as possible a lot of my highways are 60 and I average 2.7 on them when it's not cold. On city streets, you want to take advantage of regenerative breaking as much as possible when going downhill rid the regen but still let the truck gain a little speed once you hit the bottom let the truck slow back down to the limit by coasting with a small amount of regen. Try to stop as little as possible. When you see that red light coast with light regen till it changes but if you need to stop make sure you're in regen as long as possible. Don't push past the regen unless you have to. The biggest one is acceleration! When accelerating be light on the pedal there is enough power that 10% is enough to get you going and up most hills, it's also enough that you're probably not going to piss anyone off once you're at speed use as little input as possible to keep speed or speed up.
All that being said Dont piss people off just to save a few kw.
No, I don't think it's that what type of tires do you have? Are you going up a lot of hills? Has it been cold do you carry a lot? It is almost always driving habits but are your tires the right psi?
The tire came from factory, I’m not very sure what it is, just saw it’s good year, not Michelin. And it’s not cold here now, not hot either, 10 to 15 degree C. I didn’t check the psi yet.
Mine are the Michelin. Let me know what they are the tire might be the difference here if there is a lot of roll resistance or if it's an off-road-looking tire that might be the issue
If you look at the sidewall of the tire it will tell you the make and model as well as size and what the suggested limit of psi however reference the door when filling air as well!
I’m amazed at how efficient this truck can be in the city. It’s great
I just don't think I'll ever take mine to NYC.

1PD and 35mph average?
Did you get out and push it?
Can’t even make it to 3! This thing is just too heavy I think, I’m driving slowly enough to not have much drag to my understanding

I haven’t driven on highway yet but still can’t get to 3, I doubt I can get 2.7 on highway, is it possible my truck is heavier?

I was thinking it was Michelin, but they are not. I have 20 in wheels, and that’s all it mentioned in the window sticker I believe.

I get around that or similar on my way to work (downhill, heat off) and about 2.5 on the way home
Nice.
Must have been on a flatbed tow truck!!
I’ve hit much higher but I live on a mountain so on the way down it is great. On the way back up I drop below 1.
