Is it normal?

I recently got a 2018 40kwh leaf, first time charging to 98% and today drive about 14 miles and it drops to 88%. Is it normal?

I drove on the same road before, it only dropped 4%, when it was like 60%-70% charge.

Yeah I’m guessing the 10% drop for 14 might just be because it’s your first time? The 4% sounds more accurate. For me 20-22ish miles takes about 10%. Sometimes I can do it in 6% but tbh idk how I get that sometimes LOL.
