400 mile range Model S at West LA Service Center?

[Neema]

I was at the Centinela service center picking up my Model X from service. While I was waiting, I checked out the Model S in their lobby/showroom. The battery looked to be around 85-90% full but was showing a range of 374 miles. That would put the full charge range at over 400 miles...

Pic or it didn't happen.

People always confuse ideal and rated range. It's a setting you can change. You always want it on rated. Ideal range will never occur in real life driving.

I think my 75D displays something like 320 miles on ideal range..

This is the only explanation.
Tesla really should do away with ideal range.

Agreed. It's pointless.

my ideal range showed 400 mile after driving 65 mph for 2 hrs and charged to 90%...

I think its because Ideal range setting is the only way to calibrate at X%.
Estimate will vary on averages the car does so its possible it will be different for each and every car even with same payload + rim size, but Ideal is based straight off battery %, and a way to measure a standard.

No ideal is not standard. That's rated. Ideal is useless and based on improper suppositions and unrealistic limited data projections.

Rated is math based solely on remaining capacity.
