Charging range

[Shella]

Sorry for the dumb post lol.

I charge my Mini EV to 100%, but the car says I can only go like 100 miles, different from the advertised range.

Also, it takes forever to finish charging even when the battery is almost full.

Any ideas what's going on?

That's the GOM. I use it, but it shows me percentages. Mostly, I ignore it, and you should do so.

No worries, it's not a dumb question, the range discrepancy could be due to driving conditions or battery calibration. Slow charging near full could be a trickle charge to preserve battery health.
