Driving Sports TV has a Trailseeker for an extended period of time. They plan on swapping in some Geolanders for off-road tests but in this video they take it across Washington state to Idaho (355 mile trip). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TczJWRzhD9M

He was getting about 3.6 mi/kwh on the flats and 2.6 mi/kwh over Snoqualmie pass with an estimated ~240 mi highway range (he did run into a fair of traffic so not continuous high speed for stretches of the drive). They also did not precondition for the first charge and charged to around 100% both times (which takes a significantly longer than 80%).

I'm looking forward to the off-road tests. They did do a brief review a few months ago with some off-road-ish testing.

Note not my video. Going by their spreadsheet at the end 2850 miles, 629.9 Kwh. 274 EPA range so either Limited or Touring rim. Not sure what size tires.

2850/629.9 = 4.5 mi/Kwh. That pretty good. However, I don't know if that how accurate that tally is in spreadsheet. I'm assuming reasonably accurate He doesn't talk about his driving behavior, i.e. was it mostly at 75 mph, 70, or lower. My guess is that he was not going to much over the limit most of the time with that estimated efficiency. And probably a fair amount of site seeing on the way. 25-35 min. stops at DCFC stations.
