I don't know for you, but for me "net consumption" is really not the same between "grandpa driving" = never going above 30-50 kW power and "aggressive driving" = when you frequently hit 200+ kW, and this even if you always stick to pure 1 pedal driving (= full regen of all kinetic energy). I get...

I don't know for you, but for me "net consumption" is really not the same between "grandpa driving" never going above 30-50 kW power and "aggressive driving" when you frequently hit 200+ kW even if you always stick to pure 1 pedal driving. I get an increase of over 50% in Wh/mile. In theory, you...

In the 30 mile mode each dot corresponds to 6 dots in the 5 mile mode. Notice that only 2-3 dots in your 5 mile picture are at 900, when you average those 2-3 dots at 900 with the other 3-4 dots before and after you get the 600 average that is shown in your 30 mile view. Generally speaking the 5...

So I love the kick you get when you slam the accelerator but then you get a depressing huge orange mountain in your consumption chart. I understand this mainly comes from pulling hard on batteries and Peukert's law. So why doesn't Tesla put in capacitor that could give max power for a few...
