So I have had a B for 4.5 years now. My 2014 had paddle shifters which greatly confused me so I did not use them much. This 2017 does not and just has E+/E/S modes and a range extender option.
So I had it trickle charging on a 110 outlet over a few days so it was charged to the max (112.5%) when I hopped in and noticed something I had not seen before, 129 on the GOM for E+ mode! I pushed the button and it showed 119 on E mode and 109 on S mode. Driving conditions of late have been perfect, little traffic on my urban commute and temperatures in the 80s.
Now I understand when some of you have posted incredible range per the GOM. That being said, I know that my actual mileage will be below 100 miles even on E+ mode in the urban environment. I'll take all the range I can get and will continue to plug in to top up at every opportunity.
All good, just wanted to post this observation. At the end of my lease in September 2020, will check resale prices and will see if I can buy my low mileage used B250e at a discount off the official lease repurchase price as I know that MBFS takes a loss when they dispose of our cars at auction.
