You might also check the 12v battery, if it's limping along on the original or a dead one it would have to be constantly recharged by the HV battery & inverter running more often. Our 2013 had the original battery still in it when we bought it a couple months ago, clinging on at 11.9v. Mileage seems to have improved slightly with a fresh one.

Pros: Mileage seems improved

Cons: original battery was dead

Vehicle: Toyota Prius

Also, most car manufacturers know that customers are generally bad at doing the "correct" thing, so they protect their batteries by design.

When you are charging to 100% you are actually closer to 95-97%, when you run your car to 0% it's actually 5-7%

All because it's easier to show you another number and build the protection into the system, than to change people's habits.

Pros: batteries protected by design

Vehicle: Kia

I have a 2016 Gen 4 that my partner commutes about 100 miles round trip in. Aside from its strange looks it's a great car. Zero repairs so far at more than 220K miles. No rattles or clunks. Every single electric button and switch still works.

Pros: Zero repairs, great car

Cons: strange looks

Vehicle: Toyota Prius

Mileage: 354000 km

My Kia EV6 does 10-80 in 18 minutes which is getting close, IMO. It\u2019s certainly enough for me

Pros: getting close, enough

Vehicle: Kia

I bought a ‘24 GT with 5k miles and regret it every day. The battery had to be replaced at 9k miles and we had a loaner for a 5 weeks. Everyday issues like Carplay not working 50% of the time and the backup sensors being way too sensitive drive me insane.

Cons: battery replaced, carplay issues

Vehicle: Kia

Mileage: 5000 km
