Why does my EV's range vary between profiles?

Hi everyone, the mileage range on my profile consistently shows 300 miles, but my brother's profile shows 380. I always charge to 80%. Could driving habits or settings explain this? Thanks.
 
If your brother’s driving style is more relaxed, like coasting more or using Chill Mode, he’s probably seeing a more optimistic range. You could also check if one of you has higher regen braking settings since that affects how much energy gets recaptured. No worries though, at 80% charge, you're both still getting solid range.
 
Just to add, if you both have the same settings and habits, maybe check if there’s any difference in tire pressure. That stuff can mess with the range a bit. But honestly, the difference isn’t a big deal, so you’re both good!

I’ll check the regen settings and see if my driving style differs, at least we’re both getting good range with 80% charge.

Great point, I’ll check tire pressure too, could be a sneaky factor.
