    Supercharging now costs more than gas (one owner's experience)

    I'm talking about difference of 50% more in the same state (Texas) on the same day. My argument was about non viability of Tesla on highways for long distance

    Supercharging now costs more than gas (one owner's experience)

    so many Tesla apologists here. rather than looking at the numbers and calling a spade a spade, everyone is offering a bunch of alternate facts! Tesla has jacked up the price of superchargers to unprecedented levels, so highway driving using superchargers will cost more than ICE cars. The cost of...

    Supercharging now costs more than gas (one owner's experience)

    fortunately, I only had to use a supercharger on rare occasions and the first few times were free. but the few times I had to use it, I realized the cost of supercharging varies wildly depending on the charging station, time, etc. most recent example is when I spent 22.59 on supercharging for...

    Discrepancy between Charge Spent vs Charge needed to get back to same level

    I will keep an eye on this, i don't think I took a screenshot when i started the car next time, it is possible that the car charged 2-3% more than it needed to reach 70% though the screenshot from the app showed that after charging the SOC is 70%. the recent charging did not show this issue...

    Discrepancy between Charge Spent vs Charge needed to get back to same level

    this makes sense, but it would have been nice if the information was more clearly presented. 1. is 80% the published efficiency rate for at-home charging using Gen 2 NEMA Adapter 14-50 (240V)? It looks like a lot of people have reported 80% charging efficiency 2. calculating the charge consumed...

    Discrepancy between Charge Spent vs Charge needed to get back to same level

    Focus on the issue here, not the non issue of charge efficiency. Per Tezlab, 20.9kwh was usedTo charge 20kwh. Tesla doesn't show details of the 22kwh figure. Even assuming this is the charge drawn, the charge reached should be 20.9 based on the Tezlab figures. The issue is the discrepancy...

    Discrepancy between Charge Spent vs Charge needed to get back to same level

    No one was in the car, it was locked and the AC was not working and as i said before no overheating protection notification was received. My issue is with numbers not adding up. For ICE cars, if the claim is 22mpg, over a period of time, may be 2000+miles, i will get 22 or above mpg. Not with...

    Discrepancy between Charge Spent vs Charge needed to get back to same level

    thanks, @GtiMart for the reply. to clarify some points Sentry mode was not used. the whole trip was about 2 hours, 80 minutes driving, and 40 mins waiting I didn't receive any cabin overheat protection notification. The car was parked in a shaded area The charge used was reported by Tesla app...

    Discrepancy between Charge Spent vs Charge needed to get back to same level

    I have this interesting observation and I am not able to reconcile all the data I had a starting charge of 70%, drove 60+ miles, and came back with a 45% charge remaining. Tesla Trips screen showed that I drove 61 miles and used 17kWh, average 276Wh/mi Immediately after reaching back, I charged...
