    Going on a 500 mile trip and the car and ABRP are totally different. Looking for advice.

    Yes, I still need to get on a level road for a few minutes and see what 65mph says.

    In town I can can get better than the advertised rage of about 205 watts per mile (240 miles). I usually avg 185 watts per mile during the week. But freeway driving I’m averaging 267 watts at 80mph or so, the 172 miles is my range on the freeway.

    My usable kw at 100% per Scan My Tesla says 46.1 so 172 miles range to 0%. So I have to stop in Buckeye, if I went through Gila Bend and Temecula, it would take a lot longer to get to Anaheim Hills. Hopefully next weekend I can get one of those 250kw stations in Buckeye.

    If I do stop in Buckeye again. I will try to get one of those chargers. Quartsite is closer than Ehrenburg so that’s why I would try to make it there. I may try to drive slower and see what happens next weekend and I also may stop in Eloy and see how much I can top off that could get me from...

    Yes I did move to a different plug and a couple others were only getting in the 70's as well. It seems everytime I stop in Buckeye it's like that. And I'd like to bypass Indio and stop at Cabazon anyways, besides slow charging in Indio, it's usually a 10 or so minute line. I see they installed...

    Going on a 500 mile trip and the car and ABRP are totally different. Looking for advice.

    My avg watts per mile ended up being round trip were 267 and cruise control set to 80 pretty much the whole time. Both driving out of town and coming back there's issues in Buckeye and Indio. It ends up taking about 10 minutes longer than the car states. Buckeye would only get 70 something kw...

    Going on a 500 mile trip and the car and ABRP are totally different. Looking for advice.

    That's how I used to drive my S, I'd go sometimes fast as long as I'd get to the next stop wit 5-10%. Maybe the car is correct, cause I'm at Buckeye and tried a couple stations and only getting 48kw. Pulled in with 22%, should be getting way more then 48Kw. Others here same as well, plus I'm on...

    and I'm trying to figure out what's the best speed to go at to get me to my destination the quickest. and the model S I would try to go as fast as I can to get me to the charger with 5 to 8%. i have SMT so I can test my wattage at different speeds

    yes those charger at Culver's is Casa Grande, my first stop is Buckeye which is where I've always stopped at for my first stop in my Model S.I'll just do this drive and see how it goes.

    Going on a 500 mile trip and the car and ABRP are totally different. Looking for advice.

    Yes I have standard range in there. I think it’s the car that’s incorrect. I used to do this drive all the time in my old Model S that Tesla reduced the charge rate and it was about exactly what the M3 is saying. I’m pretty sure the faster charging of the M3 and a much lighter efficient car as...

    Going on a 500 mile trip and the car and ABRP are totally different. Looking for advice.

    I’m driving to California and it’s 470 miles. My 2021 short range M3 is telling me there’s three stops at 40 minutes each. ABRP is telling me three stops but one is 18 minutes one is 20 and one is 15 minutes. I have all the default settings in there and don’t know why they’re such a discrepancy...

    Looking for a M3 roof shade without clips

    I used to have an old Model S and I loved the cheap Amazon roof shade it had. There were no clips and it came on and off in seconds. I think the Tesla one has clips attached, but just seeing if there’s a less expensive one out there without clips and colored white. A few people I know have one...
