My Macan 4S EV range dropped suddenly recently. It has been just over a year old and I usually charge up to 80% as recommended. It has been around 220-240 miles of range when it is charged 80%. However, it has been dropped to 190 mile range recently. Even when I drive, I recognize that the range drops faster than normal, like it drives 45 miles, but the range drops 80 miles. Has anyone experienced similar? I would like to hear before I head down to the dealer to look at.

How you determine it's an actual range drop?Did you actually drive almost the entire estimated range of 190 miles and your SoC reached as low as it gets (2-3%) and remained that way?Does the amount of power you add in a charging session coincides with what the car reports it received?And far and foremost does the SoC at any given time coincides with your kWh/100miles calculations?
There's a great chance your cells are starting to loose their balance and you must 're-educate' BMS to remember its limits from full to empty.
There's been a specific procedure for doing so and it's described extensively in this forum in several posts.Here's my input on the subject,I believe you'll find it helpful!

Great questions! I just read the range on the gauge and app on my phone. Both are matching and showing much lower range @ 80% than it was a month ago. Last Saturday, I drove it for 100 actual miles total. Before the journey, it showed 194 miles of range @ 80%. After driving, it showed only 70 miles range left over. (I didn't check the %.) I will dig into the subject you posted and see what I can do. Thank you so much for help!

Extreme heat can have the same effect as extreme cold on an EVs range. Has it been hotter than usual where you are?
