Thanks for the comments, and great to know that my range is only gone bc of the cold and not gone forever, which was my biggest concern. I agree, its not worth getting BMW or the dealership involved if things return to normal when winter is over.

Electric range of 45e at -20 degrees C and below :-) (Picture taken in garage, so only -13.5 C.)

The secret is that I started over 500 meters above sea level while the destination was at 40 meters only.

I think, another secret is Adaptive mode, where you drive most of your trip on gas, and regenerate e-miles down the road to use them later.

i found no difference between Adaptive and Hybrid drive modes. BMW saw this, too, and removed Adaptive drive mode altogether when they produced the 50e.

(i actually prefer to use Hybrid Eco Pro on long road trips.)

This doesn't really count nor mean anything since you have been using gasoline during the trip. Whenever the engine is disengaged it counts as Edrive kms. Theoretically you can have an empty battery, climb 2000m using gasoline, and coast down agian claiming 50 km of EV range out of nothing.

Hi to all,

I have the G30 530e 2019 German edition and yesterday managed to change SOC and achieved +30% better range.

If you need any info, you can contact me.

Regards,
Mike

Hello
I have two G30 530e.
One from 2018 and it have 9kwh battery
Second is from 2020 and it have 12kwh battery

First of them, have 22km range, second them have 57km range
Its big difference. Strange.

Anyway, i coded 3 parameters (SoC) to 100.
Does anybody tried to code below 100 ? What happened?

2018y - 9kwh - won't go on electric when have less than 15/12% of energy (based on readings in mybmw app)

Do software upgrades restore the factory battery management and range?

i have read reports that they do reset

Yes but depends whether an update involves a module that has extended range coding. http://missiontuning.com provides a Windows
Program one can use to restore the coding.

Sure,
Its coding so its gone like coding cluster/dash or HU and chiptuning.

I have set it to 120 and so far no problems. Highest range that I've seen is 45kms (with 12kwh battery)

i set 100 - so its lower and i should have higher range.

in 530e with 12kwh battery usualy ive done 57km without AC.
