Lifetime Average Wh/mi

[brianman]

P85 here in Socal 6600 miles av 358 wh/mi. Probably due to many short trips. What does one have to do to average 270?

Drive on flat land I guess. I see a lot of sub-300s reported in Texas and basically none in Washington.

I just drove from eureka to Folsom supercharger and back. My average dropped from 391 to closer to 381 @7200 mi. Driving on i5 going 70-75 I was getting better than rated traffic is nice. We don't have that up here.

I met someone that had 16000 miles on his P since the end of December!! (160 mile round trip everyday) and was close to rated ideal I think

Still winter like temps here in Quebec (< 32F). I get 205 wh/km (328 wh/mi) for my first 400 miles. I assume it's going to be easy to beat Rate miles when comes warmer season.

You are dong quite well pb! I'm avging 237 Wh/km so far over my first ~3400km. (Must be my leadfoot/p85 combo.)

So I have 4419 miles, 1667 kWh, 377 wh/m over the life of the car (B never reset). I received the car In Sept and i am in Virginia. I suspect two things are affecting this and making it somewhat different: first from Sept to now we went through winter, from Sept temperate 70's into cold down to 30's and rare 20's. Not brutal cold but chilly. Second I have a roadster so the charging is intermittent, even 3-5 days in between and rarely out to 2 weeks without charge. So the vampire load is a significant chunk. My typical drive is 12 miles each way to work every day. I look forward to a huge reduction in the offline load some day, the roadster is much better behaved.

Vampire loses aren't included in the wh/mile figures that the car provides...

Hi All,

This looks like a cool thread, can I join?

I got my Model S on the 17 of March. It's a blue Performance edition with 21" wheels.

Nearly all of my miles are from my daily commute from PA to MD. I'd say about 2/3 of the drive is in MD (down 83). Temps have been on the cold side for this area, however, things have been warming up.

BTW: I'll remember to kill the flash next month..

Mine is identical to your. Except I only have 1,400 miles.

My energy consumption has been similar to yours here in So Cal... 2200 miles averaging 348 Wh/mi in a non-perf 85 since 12/31/12. Mostly short trips with somewhat aggressive acceleration and braking as well as living on a slight hill.

 

[jchangyy]

So far, 1800 miles and 323 Wh/mi. spent $45 on electricity. Used Supercharger 3 times.

 

[Lloyd]

5400 miles and spent my first $20 at a blink charger in San Diego last weekend! All charging at home is solar, and all supercharging is free!

 

[huntjo]

2847 miles averaging 380 Wh/mi.
Lots of bitter cold unplugged outside when I'm at work overnight and lots of short distance commuting. I have seen much better numbers in weather above freezing. I'm going to reset a trip odometer when I put my summer tires on in a week or two.

Just hit 10,000 miles today, last reset the A trip-meter a bit over 7500 miles ago, showing average of 364 Wh/mi over 7623.4 miles. P85, 21", mostly mild weather semi-hilly driving in NC. About the only way I can get below 300 Wh/mi is to stay off the freeway to keep the speed down (such as how I was driving this AM and got 286 Wh/mi over 22.6 miles.)

Data update for end of April.
P 85, 21" wheels

For the last month:
Temp between 30 F to 70 F
1321 mi , 454 kWh, 344 Wh/mi

overall since feb 17th including a mix of 19" and 21" and cold temperatures:
3086 mi, 1124 kWh, 364 Wh/mi

The Wh/mi improve a lot as the temperature raises.

My April numbers (Trip A) & lifetime (trip B)--much better even though we had some nasty weather & my wife was driving the last 1/3rd of the month. Lifetime @ 6000mi was about 340Wh/mi.

Great numbers, but you don't drive much.

I seem to be averaging around ~370 for most of my driving now that the weather is nicer in Portland, OR. I was around ~430 in the winter.

Thanks. No I definitely drive less than most. 600 miles per month is actually higher than my 6 years with the Prius. We are definitely taking the MS more as a couple than we did the Prius. And, I am definitely volunteering for more "spouse directed errands" as an excuse to drive the car.:smile:

The numbers are from slow driving and increasing temps. I need more data but I seriously doubt that I could get rated (304kWh/mi?) if I were commuting daily on an interstate. My guess at this point would be I'd be averaging more like 310-330 in that scenario.

Outside the bell curve:

WY 85 19 303 4465

High altitude operation - occasionally dip down to 5000 ft. Car has actual 4488; must've lost that 23 miles during a dash crash.

Does anyone know how to see the lifetime stats on the energy consumption? If the trips are reset then you loose the lifetime stats...

Most of it around town with occasional trips around the state.
