They said it's my driving habit on my first visit with the service managers. On my 2nd, 3rd and 4th visits, I adjusted my driving habit. Still the same result. I told them if I bought the car because it goes 4.2 seconds to 60 mph, why would I drive it 9 sec to 60 mph? Also, if it's rated 135...

I've always been anxious about my range. In my prior texts, I mentioned I talked to the service managers a few times in my area and I gave up. I even demanded to see if my battery is a mistake but they showed me 72 kwh pack. As I mentioned also, I could only get 3.5 mi per kwh. If you multiply...

I agree. If a quad would only go 350 which I am skeptical that it's not really 350, I'll go for the model Y and save money and garage issues.

Kris, you seem to be practical and logical. I read somewhere in the internet that the whole battery pack is not all usable for us owners. Do you know in % how many % are held for other purposes?

I'm very disappointed with 350-mile range. I wanted to get the tri motor 500-mile range. If that's the case history repeats itself on me. I have a Model 3 rated 330 miles that cannot get 230 miles, now, this 350 miles will only do 250 if I'm lucky? Not again. I thought 500 would at least get 350...

Very nice.

I've been complaining about my range. For me I've never driven full to zero. Sometimes I end up with 10 to 15% left but you can prorate the mileage. The only factor I haven't considered is the amt of reserved energy. Even if I added the reserve, I don't think my efficiency jumps from 65 to 85%.

To be honest, I cannot I cannot give you the watts per mile as I'm on a cruise and won't be back home for 8 days. The only info I see in my app are the miles driven at 11,873 miles but I cannot access the charge stats from my app right now?

The best I could muster for a long drive, is 3.5 miles average per kwh. I understand (if I'm correct) that I have a 72 kwh battery capacity but not all the 72 kwh is usable for driving. Also, from my house to a golf course I play going downhill most of the 5 miles one way I use 1 kwh but when I...

I I went personally to Tesla Service managers and gave them my written factors and they told me it's my driving. I changed my driving habit and tried driving 70 to 75 mph in a 75 mph speed limit like a fool because most drivers do 85 mph. I increased my A/C temperature to 72 deg F. The only...

I appreciate your explanations. I wish Tesla declared that a certain amt of energy reserved was included in the calculations and specified how much energy are reserved for every model and variant. I still wonder if their rating would be close to the real world driving.

You'd be dismayed that if I don't cancel, you're still ahead of me. ? ? I really understand how the range go down compared to EPA. I turned 79 and drove since 15 and had a dozen ICE cars. My BMW was only off by 5 to 7% and I drive that for 13 yrs like a maniac compared to this model 3 that I'm...

I'm happy where I live. I cannot make that much of a sacrifice just to please Elon Musk. I will follow this topic and if I don't hear anything that improves this issue, I will sell my Model 3 and cancel my CT order. I lost my trust after reading this article. No wonder I've been dissatisfied...

Tesla was so swamped with complaints about driving ranges that it created a secret team to cancel owners' service appointments, source says. Tesla exaggerated the driving range of its vehicles for years, Reuters reported.

Everyone has a good point. I have no argument that all the various factors mentioned would lower the range of the car. Maybe I'm just stubborn that however differently I drive in various ways and conditions, I'm only getting 60 to 65% efficiency on my range. I think 75 to 80% efficiency is...

Hope you and I are right. Your calculation makes most sense to me. I agree 100% with you.

That's what I noticed with other owners. I'm the only one anxious about it. I bought my Model 3 Long Range with spec of 330 miles. It could be where I live where it's kind of hilly terrain, or the way I drive but I've since realized my foot was heavy when I first got the car so fixed that. I...

I know people will have different opinions. I don't really like to get FSD. Maybe it's the cost and not being able to utilize it fully. Just me.
