Kia EV9 winter driving - summary after 4 days

Good news! I was able to get over 250 miles of highway range in the AWD Wind trim today. This was with temps between 50-55 F. Raining the whole time. Ended with 6% battery.
What's the estimated range on the wind again?
What state are you in?

But that's pretty good I get about 220-230 highway range on my Ariya that has 300 miles range so to get 250 on the ev9 seems great.
 
Only 280. Kia seems to have been conservative with estimates relative to others.
Gotcha. Just was curious what state because I notice I get more range and estimated range in southern Texas which is flat than I do in socal in the mountains and more hills.
Im between Cali and Texas staying in both and never seem to hit my 300 miles of range in California usually 280, but in Texas I can get more usually around 305+ so it varies just where you are at.
 
I'm in the Seattle area. Definitely some hills. But I wasn't going over any mountain passes. Also temps are colder up here. I generally got better range in SoCal than Seattle when I drove in my Y.
Oh ya a little chilly up there and y'all have mountains so getting 250 that's pretty good. My home is Texas so looking good for me range wise ☺
