This looks very unrealistic, isn't that more than you'd expect even from 100%? I wonder how you car arrived at this. My last drive was 8 km downhill with negative consumption (it told me -7.3 kWh per 100 km) and still it doesn't give a wild guess like this.

In this case I will probably charge to 90% which should be enough, and not a problem since I'll be charging anyway and have already reached my destination. But there have been cases on previous trips where I've had to make an extra stop to fill up, just to ensure I arrive with over 30%.

The instruction manual for my VW ID.3 said the car should not be parked for over 12 hours with less that 30% battery (and I should charge ASAP if arriving with less that 20). So I made it a rule to always arrive with at least 30%, since charging just after arrival on a road trip isn't always practical (and may not even be possible). Sometimes I've had to make an extra charging stop just for that. But the manual for my Elroq is much more vague on that point. I'm off on a new 3 week road trip in a week. The first day is very long and with the one charging stop I'm planning, I expect to arrive with around 10%. But there it IS practical to charge on arrival, as there is an Ionity just a few minutes walk from my hotel plus a few other alternatives. The next day I have about 250 km, so if I start with 80% I may or may not have over 30% on arrival. And in that case I'd prefer to slow charge at the hotel the next morning. Should I stick to the 30% rule or is that too strict, at least if I intend to drive again (and get opportunities to charge) the next morning? Mine is an Elroq RS if that makes any difference.

Only 3% battery left and the warning symbol is still only yellow? 🤔 I haven't driven my fairly new Elroq to lower that 14% yet, but in my VW ID.3 with quite similar display, it turned red at 10%. And the one time I went below 5%, it was replaced with a red turtle. I was driving uphill, and it turned off the heat with -15C outside. 😨 Luckily I had only 2 minutes left to the charger.

Hello all, New member here. I am taking delivery of my new Elroq RS on Tuesday. I did go for the special colour Mamba Green. 😁 Not new to EVs, I am currently driving a 2022 VW ID.3 but I wanted something with a bit more luggage space (up from 385 to 470 l) and with 4WD. Considered ID.4 but that's "too big" for me, so the Elroq seemed perfect. I think there will be improvements in some other areas too. I will be taking it for a 3 week road trip to/in Finland in August 🇳🇴🇸🇪🇫🇮
