I have been working with the service center and keep getting told they will look into it and come up with plans to do so, then I get forgot about. So someone tell me if they are getting the same results. I'm not worried about the distance I can go. But I am looking at the kW that I can use. I have a 2016 S90D. AP1, refreshed. As a test, i charged last night to 100% knowing I needed to drive a bit today to another city to look at a job, and I could test the limits of my battery. I was driving a lot of the day. No pre conditioning, over heat protection or any of that. I drove about 150 miles, then parked for a couple hours, then drove the rest of the miles. Here is the picture of my dash screen. I understand there is a buffer and have been told by a ranger that it was 3-5%. But shouldn't I be able to get more kW out of my battery? View attachment 309273

I think there've been many answers in this forum already.

I think that's why Tesla is refusing to reveal its kWh numbers for its Model 3 Short Range and Long Range batteries!

There's an article:

https://electrek.co/2016/12/14/tesla-battery-capacity/

  • Original 60 – ~61 kWh total capacity, ~58.5 kWh usable.
  • 85/P85/85D/P85D – ~81.5 kWh total capacity, ~77.5 kWh usable
  • 90D/P90D – ~85.8 kWh total capacity, 81.8 kWh usable
  • Original 70 – ~71.2 kWh total capacity, 68.8 kWh usable
  • 75/75D – 75 kWh total capacity, 72.6 kWh usable
  • Software limited 60/60D – 62.4 kWh usable
  • Software limited 70/70D – 65.9 kWh usable

There's a graphic somewhere on the internet:
