250 - 115 = 135 which comes very close to the 138 miles remaining. It also means you drove the car like casual Sunday drive. Get your money's worth out of the "Performance" and bury your right foot in the potentiometer a little more. A few front row traffic lights next to an AMG, Porsche or M Series will encourage you to increase battery consumption.
