I have an Ionic and my wife has the Versa.  Today we cycled together and both recorded the ride, (My wife had her cellphone with her also as the Versa has no GPS).

Even though the resulting maps on both were identical, the mileage differed greatly. - See attached screenshots.  I recorded 12.29 mile whilst my wife's was 15.33 miles.  

How can there be such a great difference?

Its big known problem that doesn't look like its getting fixed any time soon i'm afraid. There's a big thread here:

Thanks for the info. Yet another Versa 2 issue along with the swimming problems.  I think it’s been a failed release to say the least.  My wife would love her original  Versa back.
