Any idea what these are called? [Update: Fairings]

[resellpanda88]

I had Tesla replace both on the passenger side, fee was 180$ installed.

It's a lot of the labor. I bought the front and both rears for $100, $70 for the front and $15 each for the rears. The labor I think I was quoted $130? I told them forget the labor just give me the parts and I'll install then myself.

I already have the delete kit and will install that but at least I have the option on hand to go back to stock if I wanted to.

I got this pile of dirt out of the passenger side front fairing.

Notice a drop in range without the fairings. Usually when I drive somewhere long distance if it says I will get there with 20% I usually get there with 1-3% more. But this week I drove long distances and it said I would get there with 20% and it would get there 20% no additional %

Does anyone know how the delete kit affects the range/efficiency?

The ones on the front are the most important, my guess is 2-4% efficiency. maybe more. Wheels covers are up to 6% I think lol.

I have no wheel covers and only front fairings and haven't noticed any reduction overall.

will leave this here in case anyone is thinking about deleting the fairings and wondering what’s involved

I have no wheel covers and fairing delete kit installed. Can anyone tell me if my wh/mi is good? I don't know how to read this chart.

AWD?
Looks decent, but fairings and covers do make it better.

Yes, AWD I never had the wheels covers on the vehicle. Had the service center deliver the vehicle without covers.

Should the Wh/mi be over 400? What is the most efficient number be for a AWD Cybertruck?

It all depends on temperature, speed of travel, inclines/declines, etc. but in level terrain at 55-65mph I get 333 Wh/mi at 75-95 degree ambient temps.

It's highly dependent on speed, load, and ambient conditions. Lower is better.

You are showing 314 mile range.

EPA range on all season tires is ~340 miles. With a 123 kWh pack, that's 362 Wh/mile

Beast with all terrains has a ~300 mile range, 410 Wh/mile.

4% loss? i was on FSD standard/hurry 67-72mph mostly. 70 degrees out. bed was full but not overloaded.
