Averaged 21 kWh / 100 km (210 Wh / km) over 4500 km most of this is road trips, only 100 km is local driving.
My wife took her Tesla from North Toronto to Waterloo and back yesterday evening.
Car was charged up, at more than 400 km estimated "rated" range.
She drove 250 km round trip and returned home with 140 km rated range remaining.
That is 18.5 kWh / 100 km.
The EV Trip Planner web tool said the drive would result in only 40 km rated remaining if done in -10C as the car would consume 28 kWh / 100 km.
Very glad she took the trip without me, gave her confidence to do longer trips.
She commented on the excellent visibility at night, the fact the rear view and side view mirrors reflections were not distracting, and that she got a thumbs up from a Black P85 on the way to Waterloo.
Apparently, he did a double take when he realized it wasn't a man driving a Tesla...
My take away here, is one of the key differences in efficiency is the driver, clearly, she's a good bit more efficient than I am!
