I have a model x on order. My concern is wind and tire noise. Just had my nema 14-50 installed today.
I even cleaned my Garage.Amazing
Thanks MrTI

I have 10,000 miles in the last 6 months. Average about 385. Wheels 22” tesla turbine wheels. Mixed driving 70 hwy / 30 city average freeway speed about 65-75. I have noticed that rainy days really take a toll on kw’s.

at 64088 miles and our lifetime is 355 wh/mi

Oh my gosh! I’m around 480 all the time. Time to ease up

dang everyone around here babies their car. driving just my usual, in the first 1700 miles my avg is 389 wh/mi.

You've hit 1700 miles already??

i took it on a 1000 mile road trip 3rd day of ownership.

I have had my X now for about 1.5 years. Have just over 33k miles on it. The average through 2 summers and a winter (winter tires installed for 6 months) is: 325Wh per mile. The mileage is a mix of highway up to 77 mph and town at 40-45 mph. My work commute is about 40 miles (round-trip) down 1200' and then back up 1200' for the return trip with mostly highway driving.

90D with factory 20" wheels.
Conti-silent for summer and Pirelli winter tires.

I don't baby the car at all. But I also don't step on it all the time (but I do make sure I'm up to full hw speed before merging on when traffic isn't blocking me.

So, what are the rest of you doing that gets you such high Wh per mile?

When I brought her home the first day, its bottom was sticking out due to clutter in the garage. good idea to clean out.

I'm at 490 wh/mi

In all seriousness, I have a 100D with 22" wheels and even if I drive very normally, in 80 degree weather, I can't seem to get below 430 wh/mi. Is something wrong with my car?

 

[larmor]

39k miles, around 347 what/mile in 20" contusilent

Recently changed fronts with pirelli scorpions and rears with nitto (flat during rid trip), 20" now wh/miles dropping, seeing 30 mile averages around 320-330..

I think reading through this entire thread would reveal a lot of comments indicating that the 22" wheels do a number on efficiency. I get the impression that most people think it is because of the weight, but I don't know if that makes sense since that should only matter during acceleration. I suspect if it is because they provide more surface area for wind resistance / air churn.

What is your typical driving route? In my P100D with 22s I would probably be averaging 460-480 on highway alone. It's the regen coming off the highways and then local driving that gets my average down, but even with that it's 430Wh/m. Yesterday I was doing more in-town driving and got my 30-mile down to 380, but then I got back on the highway and it went right back up. But, I'm also averaging 75mph on the highway.

This morning I couldn't let an RS7 blow by me so that got my average back up to 460..

I guess it's the speed that kills efficiency. I usually get around 400Wh/m with top speed 70mph, but with lower speed like 50mph i get 370Wh/km, with my P100D 22 inch Goodyear Eagle F1 tires.

Today I was stuck in traffic. I never accelerated more than 1/4 throttle, but my energy usage was around 800 wh/mi for 5 mile average. Why!? The A/C wasn’t getting cold either.

 

[EV_enthu_jp]

i get 370Wh/km

That's too bad!
In case of wrong typing, 370Wh/mile is reasonable.

 

[EV_enthu_jp]

If the traffic was less than 15 mph, the wh/mile number is getting worse.

Was this just after you started the car from cold? I've noticed my average in the morning starts over 1200wh/mi until the car gets moving for a bit.
