1)yes IF you max charge the car which you should only do for road trips or you actually need those extra miles.Curious...
1. Does it actually show the 400 number on the range display?
2. Can you actually go 400 miles on a charge with *real world driving or nah
So what you're really saying is... there isn't a single scenario where any of us can expect the 400 mile range.1)yes IF you max charge the car which you should only do for road trips or you actually need those extra miles.
2)that really all depends on how you drive. *most* people that have Tesla’s enjoy the heck out of them so no you won’t get close to the 400 miles. There is what I call my in town Tesla where I drive spiritedly and will get about 2/3 of my range. And then there is my road trip Tesla where I drive like a little old man with AP engaged the entire trip and then yes I’ll get about 90% of my range.
Yes I would. And I can't think of a single strip of road in Northern California where I could do just that.It's actually possible to get higher than EPA if you drive at a steady pace at 45MPH on dry level ground on a calm, warm but not hot day. You'd go crazy though.
Iirc epa is based on 55mph. But still.It's actually possible to get higher than EPA if you drive at a steady pace at 45MPH on dry level ground on a calm, warm but not hot day. You'd go crazy though.

This is what we refer to as marketing.
Since you’re in Northern California you can get that range if you drive from Donner summit to the Bay AreaYes I would. And I can't think of a single strip of road in Northern California where I could do just that.
But in your beautiful province - I'll bet there are some nice options.
Does it regenerate if in neutral - or only in Drive ? Just wondering out of the blue...Maybe if we push it down a hill in neutral?
From Donner to Auburn - can probably get away with using 25-30 miles of range thanks to the world of regeneration. But that slog into the Bay once you're down the hill...Since you’re in Northern California you can get that range if you drive from Donner summit to the Bay Area
What is a warranty claim violation ?If you drive it really aggressively and fast in cold weather I bet you could get it down to 200 miles of range, but I also bet if my wife drove it she could get 400 miles of range...
MEH...
It kills everything else on the road for NVH and acceleration, so who cares, I also don't have to smell like a stinky gas station attendant or smell burning oil when they do the sloppy oil changes, like on my ICE.
Agree. In temperate CA weather at reasonable “5-10 over the limit” speeds I have no trouble getting quite close to 1:1 rated to actual miles on my normal commute.I've always exceeded EPA rated range in my P85DL in the spring and fall on my 260 mile round trip commute. I've even made it to work and back on a single charge a few times and my EPA rated range when brand new was 253 miles.
My best ever round trip commute was 259 wh / mile average which would have been 297 miles from the 77 kWh available from the 85 when it was new.

This is in a 2016 S75. I don’t know if that’s become more difficult in newer models as Tesla has gotten a bit more aggressive about gaming the EPA test.
