    give us some more information on your trips and where/how you drive. There can be multiple reasons for this. First reason that comes in mind is are you driving very short 5-10 miles trips? Are you driving on a freeway or internal roads? what speeds? Battery pack health?

    Did this just start recently? You were doing better before? Any recent maintenance, tire changes, brake work? As previously mentioned: change in driving conditions?
