On day two of ownership of the Sr+ I charged to 100%. I got 375kms. It can’t be degradation.
I got the same range when I charged to 100% for the first time.

What ya getting now?I got the same range when I charged to 100% for the first time.
What ya getting now?
Dropped to 291KM now
Don't use "distance" as your setting. You'll never get accurate information vs "energy". Easy.Dropped to 291KM now
Was that post V10? Since the upgrade, my mileage at 80% has consistently dropped to 304. I charged to 90% last night and I'm at 335. Used to get 341 pre-V10. Could just be a coincidence and I'm finally seeing battery degradation.
There should be some degradation as expected as well as the temperatures have consistently dropped. The battery pack will report less range with cooler temperatures. If there's enough in the pack to cover your commute and then some, don't worry about and drive. Did you ever worry about your gas tank getting that full reported "estimated" 600kms? No... it's no different here.

tesla should warn people about the degradation
sure ICE cars lose marginal amounts of HP over time, but HP doesn't make your car incapable of reaching its destination as you had planned it to.
My P90D was originally 429 kms of 100% range when brand new. After 2 years and 42,000 kms it was down to 410 kms of range. Now at 4 years and 88,000 kms it sits at 398 kms of range at 100%. I've seen 31 of my precious 429 kms disappear, which is 7.2% in 4 years.
It's 'normal' however it doesn't make it right.
This is super interesting......
Yes, you are correct. Tesla doesn't calculate the range based off of recent driving style like Chevy does (both the volt and bolt do this). Tesla more or less always uses the constant factor of ~ 150 wh/km (or 144 wh/km and the -5 kwh reduction in the analysis by Bjorn). A service tech once told me that it isn't entirely true that Tesla doesn't apply a correction to the pack, but I can 100% say that it doesn't experience the 'guess-o-meter' swings of other EVs where you can be 55km in a gen 2 volt to > 100 km in summer. My wife's bolt can be as low as 200 km in winter (lots of short driving with heat) and over 400 km in the summer. Telsa more or less always 'reports' the same range regardless of recent use of heat, or heavy acceleration.I am still trying to understand is guess-o-meter works in some way for Tesla as well?
Let's say I charged my Volt one day and it shows me the EV range of 85 km. I drive supper efficient and made 90 km next time full charge will show 90 or 95 km of range. So I continue to drive efficient and another day I made 110 km on the charge so next time the car will show me about 100 km of the range at the full charge.
But it is not the case with Tesla, right?
For everyone talking about what they "get" at a certain % or extrapolate to 100% please stop. The mileage shown is completely irrelevant.
The actual range of the vehicle could be +-100km to what is reported depending on driving conditions
So the best play is to switch to % and view it like a fuel gauge and not worry about degradation
