What’s the best mode for efficiency? Sport or Chill or Custom?

[NightOwl]

“You can improve efficiency of the cabin heating by reducing your selected acceleration mode, allowing the heat pump to take more heat from the battery to efficiently heat the cabin instead of maintaining the battery’s ability to provide peak acceleration performance. ‘Chill’ is the most energy efficient mode, especially in cold weather.”

Good info! Thanks!

I’ve yet to do a deep dive into the manual. I need to do so.

If I understand correctly, medium is the best tire saving height because highway speed is going to low anyways.

Do I have this right?

I don't think that there is any evidence or suggestion of that.

@Pops just tended to confuse the discussion when he brought up a problem that Rivian has. I'm pretty sure there is no indication that it is an issue with the Cybertruck.
Or for that matter the Model S or Model X, which also has adjustable air suspensions.

I tried to use language stating that the CT having this issue was hypothetical. I never definitively said it suffers from a camber issue, but I can understand the confusion.

The Model X most definitely does suffer from this issue so it isn't a completely unfounded concern for a Tesla with air suspension. A quick search will show a lot of discussion about a camber issue on the Model X for the rear wheels.

I'll drive in super low mac-daddy mode until I rub the tires off.

I'll be sure to have this booming from the megaphones as I slow-cruise A1A.



Will report mileage at that time.
