> Nice. Is the Fit EV technically Drive By Wire? I know the accelerator pedal in the DBW Acuras/Hondas ‘learns’ and numbs the throttle response to help gain Mpgs. So making those multiple runs, it was giving you a bit more. I try to reset mine once a month or when I goto the track. Or could be that it uses brakes to charge in part right? So your giving it a decent charge slowing from the run, after each one, might account for something more so than the DBW junk. Heres the procedure if you want to try it.

Yes it’s drive by wire and it does have brake regen. It pins the charging needle when I’m slowing down on the top end. Thanks for the insight about the pedal “learning”. I will clear it next time out. 🙂
