What speed range is used for the low, medium and high reference?

Wondering because for me only the medium one has any significant increase in confidence. Yet the 110 kmh reference keep going up so ABRP is getting worse at estimating consumption.

    Hi @Jan Tillung,

    The simplified answer is that the speeds are approximately;

    • Low: 20 km/h

    • Medium: 70 km/h

    • High: 125 km/h

    If your reference consumption seems to be incorrectly calibrated, I could recommend to try and reset the calibration; My calibrated reference consumption seems off. How can I reset the calibration?

      So am I understanding correctly? 0-20km/h is low, 21-70 is medium and 71-125 is high?

      OR is it 20-70km/h is low, 71-125 is medium and anything over 125 is high?

      Tried it, doesn’t work. The calculation get worse as I drive again. Already got a problem ticket here about it with my eGolf, but there has been no update on it.

      No idea if it is the wrong weather forecast used or all the tunnels in my area that is causing it. Or maybe the profile for the car just don’t calculate consumption properly at speeds around 50-80kmh.
      I can set ABRP speed to be 10% below speed limit and it still fails by a lot. Like up to 20% at times.
