range post charging Max eDRIVE vs ICE/eDRIVE

same overnight charge and time (pre-programmed)
1. after using all Max e-DRIVE the previous day: approx 44 km ave (40 k round trip home to work)
2. using combo ICE and e-DRIVE (default when starting up) the previous day: charges to maximum range: 55km
this happens consistently.
any thoughts on why the discrepancy depending on what modes had been used the previous day?

It's just an estimate based on your usage, the charge level is the same.

Comfort mode gives greater range than e-drive due to gearing of the electric gear box (1st gear e-drive only vs 2nd gear comfort mode).

i appreciate the charge is the same, but had forgotten about 1st vs 2nd gear difference. in any case, that implies that it only calculates it on the previous days drive, not a rolling average over umpteen days(same drive each day to and from work).
