Just completed my 11th month:

Lifetime: ZBB 295 15,705 AZ 60 19 1 4/30/14
April: ZBB 282 1,378.0 AZ 60 19 1 4/30/14

This is the 2nd month in a row with the monthly wh/mi being below 285 (last month was 284, this month 282). Mild AZ spring weather is likely contributing, but Tesla replaced the drive unit at the 12.5k service towards the end of Feb -- so I'm wondering if that is helping. My one year anniversary in June 4, so will be able to do year over year comparisons pretty soon...

For me the one year anniversary is mid July - I'm very curious to see year over year comparison numbers. I wonder if the changes in firmware play into that...
For those here with early sigs... how did the year over year comparisons go for you?

Another month of spirited driving, I guess. ;-) Actually my month number is a lot better (have we finally left winter behind?)--331 versus 362 last month. I went to Raleigh again and am going there again in May, so this month and next (in theory) should be similar....

I upgraded from 4.x to 5.9 this past month (2-3 weeks ago?) and had to replace the rear tires when I went in for annual service (uh...a week ago I think?). I've had a couple of punctures that required replacements anyway, so I'm not sure whether any are original tires; one front one may be.

May 2, 2014: 16,838 miles, 313 lifetime. MA S85 19"

Down from 319 (lifetime) last month. It'd be even lower, but Spring fooled us with (1) 70°F day, then back into the 30's and 40's for a couple of weeks.
Eight months today!

I can drive one way and be frugal and get under 300... but then I get bored and stomp on it the way home... Over 25k miles I average 344, mixed between 19's and 21's and winter/summer. Since putting my 21" back on last month, I'm at 340... Still frugal compared to gas though, right? ;)

April numbers, S85 on 21s:
1256.7 mi, 412.1 kWh, 328 Wh/mi

I'm actually getting 270-ish on my commutes for the last couple of weeks, with mild, dry weather.

Here's total too. NOTE, I forgot to reset my Trip A meter, so I had to subtract from Mar, to get April numbers.

15,568 mi, 5306.2 kWh, 341 Wh/mi.

@Bugeater, those are some really big numbers, even for a P85, for the Bay Area given this past mild winter. What's up?

Oh, hello, Christian!

My wife loves the seat heater and likes it warm even when it is already hot. And minutes later she gets hot and turns on the A/C. Repeat.. What can I say... [8^)
A couple days ago I say average wh/mile over 500.
Since we charge via solar panels I guess it isn't so bad.

Hi Christian. ?

Is that the avg per month or the cumulative average?
It's a cumulative average. So I realize it's pretty worthless for those trying to figure out variation by month. But in my case, it doesn't seem to matter since it always gravitates back to around 370-372 the longer I drive.
