which for the M3 I believe is either 240 Wh/mi or 250 Wh/mi based on model.
Pretty sure rated consumption for the 3 is much lower, like in the 220wh/mi range.
As you said, depends on the model, and whether you’re talking about displayed rated miles or the rate displayed on the charging screen.
For 2021 Model 3 SR+, it’s about
203Wh/rmi, or 194Wh/rmi displayed.
53.5kWh/263rmi, and then multiply by 0.955.
For 2021 Performance Model 3 it is:
80.6kWh/315mi ~=
255Wh/rmi
Or 244Wh/rmi (displayed).
For 2021 (and maybe 2022) LR AWD it is:
77.8kWh/353rmi or 79kWh/358rmi
220Wh/rmi or 210Wh/rmi (displayed)
For my vehicle it's 245Wh/rmi, 234Wh/rmi displayed.
These numbers can be checked for the fundamental constant for any vehicle by exactly aligning average consumption with the line and subtracting 5Wh/mi (line is always 5Wh/mi too high), or just taking Projected Range * Recent Efficiency / (Rated Miles remaining )(no confusing subtraction using that second formula).
And then multiply by 0.955 if you want to know energy content of each
displayed rated mile, which removes the buffer energy.
I think the displayed rates when charging are calculated with the fundamental charging constant so will be lower than what you actually get, but I am not sure about that. You can always compare actual results vs. displayed rate over a fixed time period and see whether they align (I’d expect 4.7% more miles added than predicted).
Anyway, can all be easily checked in the vehicle.
There's a thread for this, which used to be stickied, but it's out of date now, so was removed from stickies, and I'm a bit too lazy to update my spreadsheet (and it also requires soliciting data from user vehicles for more recent models). And I would want to link to all the data from pictures of people's cars, which would be a project! Maybe someday. Just a little pointless since any user/owner can easily determine the constant, right from their own vehicle. Still, if I wrote it all up with the degradation threshold covered and stuff it would probably be helpful. Meh...
I should have done this a while ago, but I've finally compiled all the data that Tesla provides to the EPA, and put it into a spreadsheet. The detailed 2020 test data is now available, so we can see why things are rated the way they are. Through formulas, I've also tried to capture what...
