    Tesla Range - Surely there’s something wrong?!?

    I’m hopefully not questioning the battery at this point and when the weather gets better and mixing some longer journeys into it, I would expect better range more in line with comments I have seen throughout the forums from other users. Everyone drives differently so there will of course be some...

    Tesla Range - Surely there’s something wrong?!?

    So in your expert opinion, what range is acceptable when using the car as a car, varied journey lengths, on and off a few times a day, which is typical for lots of users? 200, 150, 100, 50, or is it irrelevant because you can charge the car at home?

    Tesla Range - Surely there’s something wrong?!?

    NewI think your right, ICE cars are definitely less affected by cold weather conditions and as we learn more about EV cars and how they behave this will become apparent. “Range will be less in winter for any EV”. This is a given and I was fully aware before purchasing. The problem isn’t the...

    Tesla Range - Surely there’s something wrong?!?

    and as I have been patiently explaining, the mentioned ranges would have been fine. However when I’m getting, not fully tested yet of course, less than 150 miles in winter I think it’s worth a query. The ranges mentioned above are what I expected to get, in line with every other type of vehicle...

    Tesla Range - Surely there’s something wrong?!?

    Electric car isn’t for me? Apologies but I’m not questioning whether the car works for me or my lifestyle. That’s not an issue. Why worry? I am definitely not worried about the car providing me with the range I need daily. Come on though, they’re advertising the vehicle with 360 miles of range...

    Tesla Range - Surely there’s something wrong?!?

    Changed to percentage and will now monitor drain over night. I have a home charger installed and I will be plugging in daily to ‘top up’, alleviating any range anxiety but......... this is not the issue and does not solve the underlying fundamental problem. The problem is getting such poor...

    Tesla Range - Surely there’s something wrong?!?

    Yeah mine is the new model with heat pump integrated. With a claimed 360 mile range and most of my pre purchase research showing a realistic range of circa 300 miles, the current winter projections are awful. I would have expected around 230-250 in winter, not what looks like under 150. Cars...

    Tesla Range - Surely there’s something wrong?!?

    Collected my model 3 LR not long ago and charged fully to 90% last week with range showing as 292miles. I’m now at 88miles showing on the screen and looked at how many miles I’ve done since the last charge...... 72miles! Surely that cannot be right? I know it’s been freezing cold and most my...

    Tesla 3 initial problems

    Sorry, Bluetooth is always on. When I go to the car and it doesn’t unlock, I turn my Bluetooth off and then back on. Remote entry now works fine. I don’t need to go into the app or anything.

    Tesla 3 initial problems

    Guys Can someone try and help with a couple of issues I’ve noticed. Windscreen has lots of circular marks visible in the sun? Cleaned both sides thoroughly but not made a difference. Almost looks like the circles left after you stick on a sat Nav suction holder. secondly, I need to turn my...

    2019/20 Orders and Deliveries [closed]

    Can someone post a picture of the ‘mud flaps’ please? And should they be on all 4 corners? Collected my M3 LR from Edinburgh and enquired about them. Was told that they’re optional??? Didn’t really get to look around the exterior of the car properly. It was just ‘set up and go’.

    2019/20 Orders and Deliveries [closed]

    Anyone collecting a M3 during COVID, what happens at collection? Do they help set everything up etc? I have the option for home delivery and wondering whether just to do that or is it worthwhile collecting from the Tesla centre??

    2019/20 Orders and Deliveries [closed]

    Just got my delivery confirmation text! 22/12 Qs - I may want to change this to home delivery. Will this normally be later than the collection date given? I don’t want to change it then lose the 22/12 slot if it’s later. Any tips on what happens upon collection and how long does it take? Thanks

    Model 3 Leasing UK

    After some digging they definitely seem to have the best deal available. Anyone else ordered through them? Or had a good deal through another supplier? If I order now I can have the car next month is what they tell me, assuming this is accurate...

    Model 3 Leasing UK

    Hi Just about to order a M3 LR direct and was wondering what kind of lease prices are available via Tesla? It will be a business car and considering using the £28k interest free EV loan (Scotland) and pay the rest. Still trying to figure out the best way forward though.... Thanks
