I bought a used 2016 90D from Tesla a few weeks ago, love the car. I need to call Tesla because it said the car should have 294 miles range on a full charge I get 270.
I took my first long road trip to my in-laws yesterday and it's 180 miles, one would think on a full charge with 270 miles of range I should be able to make it there without charging. As I'm driving the % remaining when I arrive started at 20% and after about 80 miles of driving it was done to 6%. I was nervous I wouldn't make it so I stopped at a supercharger and charged for 10 min. I realize there are factors that affect the range, but I would still like to believe that I'd be able to make a 180 mile trip without stopping and not worry if I have 5 miles of range left when I get to my destination. Any thoughts?
