That makes three reports of excellent range. Just under 100 w/o Range Plus, and about 120 with. I am glad they don't need to calibrate known distances.

Yes, but are you simply turning it on, or can you also adjust the temperature from your phone? For instance, OnStar allows only the activation of climate control, not the setting. Tesla allows both, remotely.

Thanks, Tony. Did you conduct this test, actually driving 120 miles? The 31.5kwh usable is about 1.5kwh shy of the 33kwh, that the range package was supposed to tap. I wonder if there's a few limp mode miles? Any chance you can inform whether the Tesla released CHAdeMO adapter, in Japan...

Thanks. I'm not with TomT, and hope people keep chiming in. Range cars are here! As long as elevation and temperature aren't far up/down, I don't see things being far off. At least maybe they shouldn't be in months such as August/September. It would be nice to know temps, a/c, and...

Thanks. I really wish more would post how it's going. I assume no one has a 'Range Plus' B-class, yet, and that this was at a perfect summer temperature. Still, 94 miles at 70mph would be pretty stunning. I expect this car to give up less on the highway, because it's better to just keep its...

The following website attempts to show what mbrace can do for the electric B: https://app-242.secure.mercedes-benz.com/app/#HomeController/index Surfing it, I see only climate as remotely adjustable. Other details, such as charge status, are merely for display only. I do not see charge...

Also, please describe the process for engaging range charging. Does it only activate after putting the car in 'Park'? Does it deactivate if the car is merely taken out of Park, turned on, etc.? Can it be activated remotely? Can it be defaulted to remain on for successive charge sessions...
