    Model 3 SR+ LFP Battery Range, Degradation, etc Discussion

    No, much of it depends on your driving style. Personally, I'm terribly under capacity for my range, according to Teslafi. I'm only at 8691km (5400mi) and 424km (263 mi) max range after a year of ownership, so I'm suffering more from calendar aging than wear-and-tear.

    I drove a 2022 MIC Model 3 RWD that had fog lights.

    Model 3 SR+ LFP Battery Range, Degradation, etc Discussion

    That's pretty good, I'm at 10 months of ownership, only 8500km, and my estimated max range is 426. I charge at home with 110V and rarely charge to full or supercharge.

    Any news about costing by kWh instead of by time to supercharge?

    Can't wait for this to roll out. It's such a pain charging at 20kW but paying for 60kW speeds when it's cold. I just hope they set $/kWh to about 0.40c here in BC.

    What is so good about the hairpin/4D1 motor?

    Model 3 SR+ LFP Battery Range, Degradation, etc Discussion

    > I charge to 55%. (though, when I was using 110 volts the first 3 months I had the car I was charging to 100%). I am reasonably confident that my battery is not negatively impacted by this. The only question for me is if the battery management system is thrown off when it calculates what...

    2022 Model 3 Propulsion/RWD (with LFP battery) real world range

    I typically get 140-ish Wh/km. But in the winter I'm getting 250, and as high as 400wh/km :P

    Canada Model 3 battery type

    SR+/RWD has been LFP since the start of 2022. It's fine, it's just slower and performs worse in the cold. If you live somewhere very cold, make sure you have somewhere warm indoors you can park it, otherwise it won't charge in the deep cold (or at least the battery warmer can't keep the battery...

    LFP to 100% Each Week—Assumptions?

    Don't even bother. I keep mine at 60% and charge to 100% just every few weeks.

    Superchargers in Iceland

    Oh, I forgot to mention, the car was locked to "chill" mode.

    Winter tire shopping - Looking at the NOKIAN TYRES HAKKAPELIITTA R5 EV

    As long as left and right are the same tire, it doesn't matter if you have R3s in the front and R5s in the back or vice versa. Just be aware the Hakkas are mono-directional, so make sure you have an L and R tire and not two of the same!

    Superchargers in Iceland

    Hello, yes we stayed in Reykjavik, Hvolsvöllur, Kirkjubæjarklaustur, Höfn, Egilsstaðir, Akureyri, Búðardalur, Stykkishólmur, and then back to Reykjavik. It was a great trip, would have loved to have spent two nights in most of these places but many of them were just one night. We drove into the...

    No supercharge in bitter cold

    I've also failed to supercharge when it was very cold (-35C and below). It plugged in and drew power, but after 30 minutes of "warming the battery to charge" I gave up, since I was paying $/min for it. So, it's possible. (Model 3 RWD with LFP pack). Also, supercharging just sucks in general...
