Based on the latest Model 3 hypermiling run last night, seems like there was about 5 kwh hidden reserve on that particular car - so about 20 miles at normal driving speeds, on a fairly new Model 3. This was the usable hidden capacity, there is also additional non-usable hidden charge even below that to protect the battery from fully discharging and really damaging itself.
But basically the usable hidden capacity is there to ensure that even the outlier cars are still able to drive to indicated 0% charge/0% range, as the car ages and low SoC becomes harder to measure...
