Battery range is really lousy and unacceptable here in freezing cold Chicago. Below about 20F i have to keep the the heater running on high and that GREATLY reduces range and increases battery drain.
did Tesla every test this car outside of calif????
I've had my X for about a month and loved it until it got unusually cold . and worse....the faster i go the colder the car interior gets. DOES ANYONE ELSE HAVE THIS PROBLEM. can't find an air leak; maybe it's the big windshield??
Tesla advertises range as 235 miles BUT then says only charge to 90% so that's 211 miles. and then says "don't get below 20%" (obviously a good idea since you never know if an accident will stop traffic for an hour) so that's 169 miles. and apparently the heater uses about 25 mi. per hour so i constantly have to look for a charger when driving more than to/from work!!
DOES ANYONE FROM TESLA HDQ. READ THESE POSTS. IS THERE A SOLUTION. i have the 75 battery and if i knew all of this would have bought the 100
