Actually it is percentage of charge capped. (Or at least that is how Tesla has always done it.) It would be capped to charging to ~39% of actual battery capacity.
So as the battery degrades you will lose available range just like every other Tesla.

It's rated range so same as battery capacity. That is to say 150km in summer and less in winter.
Thats interesting, if I hear you right then why didn't Tesla give a Kw rating (thus mileage dependant on weather etc) instead of the 150Km (93 miles) range, implying guaranteed 150km whatever the weather/conditions? Curious?
And what would the kW be for 150km based on official figures? 386km range standard, 150km of 386km is roughly 39%, battery capacity is 75kW (so 29kW capacity) or 62kW capacity (thus 24kW), this is just off the top of my head more accurate numbers maybe needed but this is roughly right?

Thanks.
So in theory if capped to 39% charge in very good weather and Granny driving you could exceed 150km range? Broadly correct??
Tesla's moving away from advertising models with battery sizes. So no more s60, p85d etc. Now it's just long range, standard range etc.
Tesla no longer markets models with the kWh rating of the battery. As far as the range that is reported when new based on the EPA testing standard. There is no guarantee that you can ever get that on any Tesla. And they all degrade over time. (General degradation is expected to be 5% the first year and then 1% per year after that.)
And yes the SR- is based on the SR+ that comes with a ~62kWh battery. So the SR- allows about 24 kWh of battery capacity when new.
Same thing with the other 3, if you drive at 60km h, in 20 c. You will exceed your EPA rating.

Yes did notice that, so its just Tesla new way of describing their capacities via range, lol what's the 150km version called short range
Yep. Just like someone drove a LR RWD Model 3, rated for 310 miles, over 600 miles by driving slowly on flat ground in good weather.

Thanks, be cool to hear/read of anyone with this unicorn 150km version has indeed exceeded 150km in actual range.
My S75 AP1 RWD (now sold to move here from Europe) had 225miles range normally, but on a really sunny day and cruising behind trucks etc driving really conservatively managed, once mind, 301 miles which I was totally stoked with, at the time

Edit: according to Wikipedia -37.8 to 37.6 at Dorval but more extreme before modern measuremrnts.
"The lowest temperature in Environment Canada's books was −37.8 °C (−36 °F) on January 15, 1957, and the highest temperature was 37.6 °C (99.7 °F) on August 1, 1975, both at Dorval International Airport.[81]"
So we can split the difference

Props for the gen1 volt centre console photoOnce upon a time in GTA )
From this plus your profile pic it seems we both fell victim to the same gateway drug and went from gen1 volt -> gen2 volt -> model 3

I should have asked: did you have the ERDTT mod on at this time? Wonder how many people on here will even know what that means. If they do, I give them extra double bonus pointsOnce upon a time in GTA )

Yeah, I don't think Tesla will do well marketing the SR- as the "Model 3 24S, but really should be 62S, but we needed to qualify for the Canadian incentive"
Yes Sr+ is eligible. Sr- 150km costs less. Some people are willing to make that trade off.
Edit: as to why it exists in the first place the incentive program requires a model to be available under 45k for any other trim under 55k to also be eligible as long as the 45k version has at least 15kwh battery. So Tesla made this crippled version for the Sr+ to qualify.

Read back a few pages and some purchasers have posted why. Basically it meets their needs and gets them into a tesla 10k + tax less. To each their own. Personally, I would not spend that much on such a limited range.

How much less. That’s a huge drop in range. Like more than half.
Is it upgradeable later? I’ll go look back.
