I think if you keep it under 60mph you could get 45-50 miles. I also have the M Sport package and really wide 22" tires so those of you with less aggressive wheels and tires could see better.

Nice numbers.
What driving mode did you driven in. Electric individual or hybrid?
I did a 80% highway (75 mph) drive yesterday in all electric and had 63 km (39,5 miles) from 100 % to almost empty arriving back home.
These numbers are comparable.
My absolute maximum was 51 Miles on 30-40 mph roads.
If the numbers you are reporting are the range we are going to see in other US cars too, I wonder if they changed free netto battery capacity, or did they just use a low expected EPA range?
In Europe, the published WLTP electric range is 102 - 87 km. That is an unrealistic range we are never going to get.
