    New model y range issues

    Not convinced that the wind was the same yesterday as indicated today. It sure felt pretty still out there. But maybe you’re right and I guess my old Kia Optima is just a better car for my needs. Maybe one day when I can have a road trip ICE car to pair with my city Tesla this will work out.

    New model y range issues

    Yeah I can believe that another 20mins or so at the charger to get to 95% and driving well under the speed limit would have worked. But I’ve seen where others are reporting road trips at normal speeds and similar conditions and distance. I was hoping for a more fun experience, I guess.

    New model y range issues

    There are no additional chargers on the route. So what research could be done that would address that constraint? If I can’t make it between the two super chargers, then I can’t make the route.

    Is my Model Y Performance normal?

    That is great to hear!! I just hope that service center will fix mine so I can have the same experience.

    New model y range issues

    Only because at every opportunity I have been told that there’s so many factors and this is normal. I’m hoping that it’s not normal and can be fixed. If not, why would I keep it? It can’t meet minimum expectations. I have friends with teslas and a friend in Denver with the exact same MY...

    New model y range issues

    It was yesterday and did not appear windy but perhaps. Can’t have a car that requires me to avoid winds to take a weekend trip tho.

    New model y range issues

    Yes after we were about 40-45mi in it wanted me to start going 10-15mph below speed limit to make it there with 3% (down from original 30%). Again, maybe that’s what you consider normal, but 15 below speed limit on one-lane two-way rural highway is not exactly safe either. People will tailgate...

    New model y range issues

    Supercharger in Cisco, TX to the Supercharger in Junction, TX. Maybe service will cancel. If so then I guess the car is worthless for road trips. It sucks. Hate to get rid of it.

    New model y range issues

    The Nav doesn’t account for the posted speed limit, which it knows and uses to calculate time to destination? That seems unlikely. Other than the outside temp of 100F there are bo extenuating circumstances to speak of related to driving conditions or style. Perhaps there is something that is...

    New model y range issues

    I’ll look it up but considering I was driving grandma style and we used bare-minimum functionalities like AC to go on a in-state trip, it really doesn’t matter if this is normal function or not. If that’s normal then it can’t be used for anything more than around town, and I wasn’t looking to...

    New model y range issues

    No trailer, nothing on top, pretty light packing. Normal driving conditions - the only thing could be that it’s 100F here in Texas and we didn’t want to die so our AC was at 74 - not unreasonable. What’s the point of a Nav that recommends charging stops if it can’t remotely project a realistic...

    Is my Model Y Performance normal?

    Just got a Model Y performance a week ago and tried for a quick state park camping trip. Two super chargers on the way. The gap between the first supercharger and second was 155 miles. Charged to 80% at the first and it said I was good to go and would arrive at the next with 30% battery. Had to...
