The Model Y LR and P received new range estimates which is most likely due to change in thei battery pack. Do we have an EPA testing on the 24 year models that show how much kWh the EPA pulled out of the battery? I guess they are switching to 4680 to benefit from the tax breaks in the US

Stay tuned for the big comparison test. I can already tell you that some of the results are shocking. I am preparing the videos and will be putting up one video at a time when they are ready. Here is the teaser:

That is because the test was flawed. If you look at the first part of the test, they had both cars on manual. Then he changed her setting and put it on Auto, basically turning on AC in the winter which is an overkill. His setting remained on manual. I am not quite sure why Tesla does this...

Can someone confirm that the Y gets 250kW even in cold weather? Do we have a video of a 250kW Y charging on V3 or at least a charge curve to about 80%? Judging by this video it seems the Y suffers a bigger drop during the winter in comparison to the 3 - coldgate? He never got pass 140kW...

I was browsing through the catalogue to see any evidence of a new battery for the Model 3 and I found this 1137375-01-N ASY,HVBAT,75kWh,AWD-RWD,1PH,M3,REMANUFACTURED This is clearly after J from last year, at least 4 itterations after 1137375-01-J I tried googling the- N part, but I only found...

For a long time I have been runing a very old and buggy 2020.4.2 that had some random RAM issues. I am experiencing a far more efficient car after this recent update. Previously I couldn't ever get the car down to below 120-130Wh/km or 200Wh/m and now I can easily go down to about 160-170Wh/m...

This is my third video in the series of Scan My Tesla where I explain how the hidden buffer below 0% works and why you can't get the predicted rated range in the Model 3's Energy Graph from 100% to 0% (or any other Tesla) if you follow the consumption on screen. This has been discussed at...

I did a Porsche Taycan Turbo run recently and made a kind of extended video comparing charging speed, efficiency, range and the charging infrastructure. In my oppinion, the Taycan can barely hold up to a Model 3 in terms of range (at higher capacity) and efficiency and once the Roadster comes...

Bjorn Nyland did a test the other day where he said that his camp mode was consuming too much power. I have used camp mode in the past and I know that his setup was wrong. I tested camp mode on camera right away at similiar conditions (same or even worse) - my battery was cold and the cabin...

In the following video I am comparing the heat loss while charging at around 3kW to charging at 11kW. I calculate that in Europe even at 13A 230V will give you only 10% disadvantage over 11kW. In the US at 7kW 14-50 NEMA is going to be even less of a heat loss difference to a Tesla wallbox. So...

Hi, Do you guys know what the typical and rated km/miles are for a Model S ,90D when brand new at 100%? I want to gestimate the degradation on a 100,000 miles loaner I have. Thanks!

I did a short video testing the heat/charge loss in the cable and charger when I slow charge at 3.7kW. This will help you in your decision wether a wallbox is viable and economical solution. 1) A Wallbox will set you back at least 1000$/€ including installation. As you see in the video...

Do you know if the 2 stalls in the city that were just opened share the 150kW speed? And is the other Supercharger outside of Szeged being built already and do you reckon it will be ready by summer?

Please post your 100% rated range display for a 2020 P and 2020 AWD Long Range models. It will be interesting to see what the full rated range on these cars is. Please also post screenshots in KM (just change from miles to km under Display - metrics) In addition, please also post a screenshot...

I did a short video showcasing some of the new features the new key fob has. To me it is a must have. Some of the things I didn't show in the video, but work: 1) Dumb summon forward and back 2) Auto frunk open (I don't have the studs - but I show the auto trunk opening) I have also included...

I am continuing the series of vampire drain tests. In my first test I showed you that you can lower your vampire drain in a day to 1-2km which is less than 0.5% a day. Now I did a series of tests over the course of 10 days. The results are very interesting. Few things out of the video: 1) The...

I promised a video explaining why your actual rated range is only 95% of your 0-100% and why you can't drive at EPA rated consumption and reach EPA rated range and here it is. This is the first part. I plan on driving at EPA rated consumption to show you, based on the BMS information from OBD II...

We see a lot of new posts by new owners who are struggling with the concept of " vampire drain" when the car is parked over a period of time. The most tech savvy people know about this, but the ICE people, who are first time EV owners, struggle why their car is loosing "fuel" when stationary. I...

On my latest road trip I had the opportunity to charge on an updated 150 kW Tesla Supercharger and also on a regular HPC from a different vendor also 150kW. Astonishingly they allow for identical charging curves. Have a look at my video here: I think the main take from it is that a 200 or...

I shot a short video explaining how you can calculate the HVAC consumption in an electric vehicle (not just Tesla or Model 3) and how to increase the range with the knowledge you gain. In the next video I will show you how our 2500km Norway trip went Let me know if you have any questions.

Total time was about 20 minutes slower than Google Map's prediction with an ICE car. Most likely due to traffic and NOT due to charging stops. Since Google is using a cruising speed of about 130km/h and were cruising at 170-180 when allowed(about 140km of the trip each way) Had two charging...

Is there a way for me to run sentry mode when the dash camera is disabled? Doesn't seem like it? Whenever I try to save sentry mode videos when the dashcam is not red(running) it doesn't save anything. I turn it off by long pressing the camera icon or then unplug and plug without turning it...

The easiest way to know wether you have HW3.0 or 2.5 is NOT via chat, but by opening the hardware cover behind the glove compartment. Then you check the first digits of the serial number and they have to match the parts catalog posted on reddit HW3 FSD Computer now available in the Parts...
