Pretty impressive range for only 10.2 Kwh.
Nice accomplishment!
Another admirable "round trip" achievement was made by another forum member, Ari_C, who drove his 2012 Volt slowly (in the 20ish mph range) around the relatively level perimeter road of a pro football stadium parking lot. He drove 81.8 miles (131.6 km) on a full charge (9.8 kWh Used, 8.3 miles/kWh).
The 2011/2012 Volt’s ev range estimate display is limited to a max reading of 50 ev miles (80.5 km). Looks like you’ve achieved it! I last did that at the end of my third summer of owning my 2012 Volt.

Not to mention that...
Actually this is my real record, because I have to stop over night and in the morning with 7 celsius outside rest of the battery drain in 10km instead 17. So if I've keep going in the same day until battery empty I probably finish with 107km on one charge. Also my avg is 1.6 as you see in the picture attached

View attachment 155237I achieved 90.5 km once on my regular morning commute. I had a following wind over the first 50 km of level terrain, max speed 80 km/h. Then dropped down Hamilton "mountain", and stop and go through the city - and on to the highway, max speed 90 km/h but some stop and go. It has gotten to the point I appreciate stop and go while I still have EV mileage left!
My best all day was yesterday at 160.5 km. 80 in the morning and 60 in the evening after nearly 9 hours of 110 charge at work. Then I left the car at my wife's workplace and took her truck, and it charged on 110 for about 3 hours more and she got another 20 km.
