Video Summary

- The BMS is relearning the battery's true capacity, but it takes several cycles.
- After three cycles, the actual battery energy content was at 69.55 kWh.
- A full cycle test wasn't possible due to time.
- The battery at 100% charge shows 297 km estimated range.
- The car scanner Pro still showed 69 kWh.
- A test drive showed 23 kWh/100km efficiency at 120km/h.
- After driving 158km, the battery showed 50%, and the car scanner showed 34.2 kWh remaining.
- At 26% battery, range estimate was 77km.
- At 25% State of Charge the HV battery content was 17.8 kWh on the car scanner.
- Using the car normally is recommended, but discharge down to 40% before plugging in.
- After a couple of weeks of cycles, the battery should be at maximum capacity.
- After a 4th cycle, the battery energy content read 69.8 kWh.
- The charge scale does not appear linear.
- It is not known how much capacity could be regained.
