The GOM guestimates range based on a number of factors including: exterior temperature, climate control settings, and recent driving experience ( whs per mile)
Cold weather with the heat on can reduce your guestimated range by 20% or more. Short trips, especially if they leave the car "on" while checking the mail means more whs per mile driven, again reducing your guestimated range.
