One week in, CT averaging 373Wh/mi, city/hwy combined In 1200 miles. I drive FSD 90% of the time, grandma-ish on manual drive. quite possibly the best Tesla we’ve owned!
Our MY and M3 both charge ~10% per hour, CT IS ~6.5% per hour on the 240/50 charger. Bigger cell.

Yes, I'm getting better than I expected after watching the first Out-of-Spec Cybertruck range test in Texas. I don't know what they did wrong, maybe the tire pressure was 50 psi warm and they did the test at night after the tires had cooled down. I don't know what went wrong but in similar driving in similar temperatures I'm getting better range than they led me to believe.

It's pretty easy to beat the official range estimate of 318 miles if I keep it down to 60 mph. That's a long way in one drive!

Yeah, your model Y and 3 have MUCH smaller batteries than a CT so naturally the CT will take longer to charge up. Some people (writing articles/hit pieces) are actually saying "something is wrong with cybertrucks, they don't charge as fast as cheaper models" Well, duh!

Same thing with gas cars/trucks... If you have a 15 gallon gas tank (like so many hybrids do) it will fill up MUCH faster than an F250 with 34 gallon tank... Doesn't make the little car better because it can 'fill up' faster... Just different... apples vs oranges...
