2017 TX EPA 228 miles

[ethange]

Hey Guys.
I just purchased a used 2017 75D TX. I saw if fully charged, the miles shows 228. Is this normal? I think EPA should be 237 miles. It looks drops 3%.

Any advise?

Yes, pretty normal. Our 2017 75D @100% was around 220, so 228 is pretty good actually. (45K miles on our car for reference)

My car only have 16000 miles when I purchased. It looks drop to much. Do u think?

Not a total knock on you, but it doesn't appear that you've done much research on EV batteries. Degradation is normal and you'll see the biggest drops in the first couple/few years. My 2016 P90D (and others) had an original EPA rating of 250 miles, but I doubt mine even displays more than 225 now when fully charged.

Pretty normal I believe. Will continue to degrade, but the speed in which it degrades will slow down over time.

That may very well be, because Tesla through its
OTA updates has taken range away - to extend your battery life - longer. That way they won't have to do a replacement under warranty.

I have a 2018 75D, the full charge range on the display on day 1 was 231 and 227 now. This is not the EPA range, its a calculated, estimated range by the battery management system.

I drive south through Oregon a few times a year and find I can make it about 240 miles driving on I5 at 5 mph over or less. That's the EPA range and I dont think its actually changed much.

I got tired of thinking about miles and just use the percent charged display. I always stop at the same superchargers on the way, miles don't really matter.

I took delivery of my 17 MX 75d last week. About 12k miles. My full charge is 230miles.
