Went for a drive in some snow today.

PPPS: About power delivery from battery (actually battery+ICE) ... with same power output independently by the SOC ... it is something that still puzzle me ... Tesla has been reported to have big difference on the 0-100kmh acceleration based on SOC ... did Mitsubishi implement a power limiter from the battery instead of a "current" limiter ? Is the ICE able to compensate the eventual luck of power from battery ? ... At 100SOC .. each battery cells is at 4.1v .. at almost 0 on dash (30SOC real), voltage is down to 3.7v .. that is 10% less voltage .. and assuming same limit in the current is applied ... is 10% less power from battery ... else ... the "controller" need to ask 10% more current for compensate the 10% of less voltage for provide the same power

I've asked about this before! We are told that we need to let the SOC drop in order to maximise fuel efficiency because a close to flat battery will accept more current from the generator so it seems logical that a fully charged battery can deliver more current to the electric motor.
