Average Wh/mi since owning?

[DoricJim]

Dec 21 M3LR on 18 inch wheels. Mainly 15 mile journeys and short under 1 mile trips around town. Plus several 550 milers (one way trip) at motorway speeds usually in winter. Use Michelin CC2s for Oct to March driving. PS4s in spring and summer.

19000 miles at 252 wh/mi

 

[AndyWarrington]

MYP 12K miles (Dec 22)
329Wh/mile
Pre climate on 3 times a day Mon-Fri (inc seats, steering wheel etc) & mostly in sport mode

Edit:

13K @ 312Wh/Mile

This is pennies difference right?
3P June23 8.5k and 299wh/m.
Seems fine. Tyres less so, they need changed soon

You have been enjoying the Performance then!!

I got almost 40k on my M3LR

 

[Kotrado]

I have my M3 SR+ since 30th September. So far 6200 miles, including a road trip across central Europe.

The average since new is 258 Wh/mi

 

[spooksman]

Had my M3P since May 2020, so nearly 4 years. Mostly commuting about 40 miles a day into Manchester, but a couple of long trips (with Superchargers) each year.

• Total mileage: 47,990
• Average: 310 Wh/mi

M3P here too,2019. A little bit higher for me, 320 at 46k miles

I suppose ide have to look on the car screen for these stats?

It’s a reasonable difference between a performance and LR. All down to the tyres or that 1,000 tons of downforce the massive rear spoiler gives it?

Has anyone ever done a test where say you take a Model 3 Long Range then test the same car on same route with the 18’s, 19’s and then also the Performance 20inch wheels? Be curious what the differences are between them all.

Sounds like a job for Bjorn Nyland

I’ve found a few places where many suggest it’s at least 50Wh/mile more to be on the 20’s vs 18’s so it’s quite the difference.

Probably a LR with Acceleration Boost if you want it is ideal. Range and really strong performance. Shame they aren’t offering Acceleration Boost on the Highland I believe at the moment.

 

[Gezz]

M3LR. Feb ‘22. 47k mostly long runs 274 HW/m. That’s on 19” (still original tyres probably 5k left). until about 2k ago when I fitted 18” ex Subaru Speedline Corse with Winter tyres

Getting about 270- 330 on a long run now with the winter tyres.

One of the sales guys I work with got a Highland last week .. just 2 weeks from order to delivery via Lease Plan.

He will be driving from Bristol to Aberdeen in a few weeks, be interesting to see what gets.

 

[FastLaneJB]

A higher speed run is where the highland I think shines vs older gen. The lower drag coefficient, the bonnet shaped to push air over the car, etc. It wont make a big difference at low speeds but higher speeds it seems from reviews is where it’ll be noticed.

Plenty of history of improvements like that "coming later". maybe its because they have wanted to see how batteries (on new models) perform before unlocking such features.

 

[Planky]

Standard 2021 SR+, I have had it since Dec 2022 and my long term efficiency is 227Wh/mi.

I don’t quite buy that in this case as it’s the same battery and motors so they should understand this already.

I have a feeling it’s either so people who might buy a Performance keep waiting for it or the new Performance isn’t going to be quicker so they want to keep a larger gap between the models this time. Got to think that acceleration boost cannibalised some Performance sales in the past.

 

[Foxsbiscuits]

So for ages I've been sweating about my Wh/mi being over 300 and thinking I'm getting terrible efficiency because others are saying 250.

Then I did the math and for a 200 mile trip -

250Wh/mi costs £7.50
350Wh/mi costs £10.50

Worst case £3 difference on a long trip. No more sleepless nights for me. Sometimes with this car I get lost in the data.

Definitely. I’ve had AB on 3&Y LR Teslas & in the 20-50mph overtaking range acceleration is virtually identical. Off the line is close enough if needed & when driving ‘normally’ it seems to have no impact on Wh/mi either.

Agree totally, that's the beauty of a home charger on a decent tariff.
If I didn't have a home charger/subject to on the road costs likely I'd be a little more mindful!
