I have a 2018 XC60 T8 and for the first two years, I would get between 20 and 25 miles on a charge in the summer and less, maybe 15, in the winter, which was fine. This year, I got the usual lower capacity in the winter, but when the heat hit, the battery life stayed the same. The readout on the speedometer/dash always says 16 and doesn’t go up when I go to B like it used to. I am getting ready to call my dealer, but I’m wondering if anyone else has had this experience?
Battery getting weaker?

All batteries lose storage capacity over time.
When I got mine, it showed a battery range of 18 miles when I started it (Hybrid mode) and 20 when I switched to Pure.
Now, after two years those numbers are each reduced by 2 miles. Perfectly normal, I think.

In my experience, in may car the range showed it´s much lower than one year ago.
Sometimes i do a electric range test in the same course and the km that i made in electric mode almost not changed, so i think that maybe the estimated range is based on daily routine...
