Anxiously waiting an AWD review / videos

Don’t forget to fold in the mirrors and get the gas tank down to 1/4 to lighten the weight.

I’ve had my AWD for almost 2 weeks and I’ve gotten ~280 Wh/mile since taking delivery. I’m obviously driving it hard though.

I have a couple hundred mile road trip at the end of the month where I’ll actually get to see a better idea of efficiency though.

Yikes that's only a full implied range of 267 miles!

The math actually works out to ~279 miles of range (Model 3 LR is listed as 78,200 usable). For how hard I'm driving it, I think that is pretty good. Like I said, I'll have a better idea of efficiency on my road trip later this month.

2 weeks and no drive/acceleration video? come on man!

I posted the first 0-60 video for standard AWD. I was at 80% charge on a flat road and lowest time was 4.33 seconds. I pulled the video after endless trolls for the location I chose, it wasn't worth keeping it up and enough people got to see it for confirmation.

Ah yes, I remember seeing that. Like any good crackhead, I need moar!

What measuring device was used?

I think it was just counting frames and using the speedo.

I was very sad when the video was removed. It not only sated my appetite, but I also had top comments

I'm pretty sure M3 long range only has a 75kwh usable battery. If you're measuring from the wall, you'll read more than 75kwh due to charging loss.

Are you sure? It was reported by Teslarati via the EPA website that the EPA Certification Summary report points to an “END-SOC” or state of charge level of 78270 watt-hours or 78.2 kWh of useable battery capacity.

Tesla Model 3 battery pack sized at 80.5 kWh according to EPA document

I'm in the back seat of a dirty Uber to pick up my performance 3 from the wrap, tint shop. Videos coming soon.

Duece24, forgive me if you’ve already stated, but what is your wheel set-up?

I can't wait to see the video of the back seat of the dirty Uber!

Haha I tried a video but it won't let me attach it. Here's a photo. These are the same nike slip on shoes I wore when I beat Alex Roys transcontinental record last summer in a Model S

Also trying to find racing stripes somewhere by then too!

In all seriousness, does a Dragy calculate slope or anything at all? I'm going to try and find either a relatively flat freeway on-ramp or some other sparsely populated separated highway with stop lights but just in case all I can find are on-ramps that slope downwards are the numbers going to be compromised?

My plan is to do the run both ways on the same stretch of road and average them together

This is the non performance thread though.

This is the non performance thread though.

The OP didn't say that, he just said AWD... Mine is AWD... But I can take my incredible content elsewhere

Oh, I look forward to your content... . Just not here. I'll get all excited my AWD will be faster than it will be haha.
