Hi All
First of all, I'm pretty new to the community as I only get my SR+ for about a month and half. After the delivery, I immediately noticed the overall efficiency was far below my expectation. I used to have a Honda CRV for the family. It was EPA rated for 352 miles or 560 km with a 15.3 gal or 58L tank. That roughly equals to 23MPG or 10L/100km. With most of the short city driving and some road trip, I achieved around 12.5L/100km which means I can drive 464 km with a full tank of gas. Let's say I got 464/560 = 83% of the average gas efficiency. I only needed to fill-up the tank once bi-weekly.
With 240 miles/386 km rated SR+, I was expecting to charge at most once a week giving 80% of the efficiency. However, I was disappointed as three charges were needed bi-weekly. I understood it's still far more cost efficient than the ICE car, but still, not up to my expectation. From the chart I have made for my SR+ below, my daily efficiency was anywhere from 38% to 72%, averaging 56%. I'm not sure if anybody get the same or achieve better efficiency.
Okay, talking about the data collection and other details:
1. Data collected before and on Jul 17th were from Teslafi. Since there were enormous discussion on how Teslafi contributes to the phantom drain, true or false, I turned off data polling from it on the 17th.
2. After 17th of July, I checked and only checked data from Tesla official App and Stats App twice a day, before and end of every day driving.
3. Outside temperature were from 22C/72F to 30C/86F during driving. Sometime parked outside, sometime indoor.
4. Max driving speed 110km/h or 70mph with around 30% of the time (highway driving) . But most of the time 55km/h or 35mph.
5. Wind was mild most of the time and it shouldn't affect the result.
6. Distance traveled up-hill roughly equals to the down-hill.
To the community, does these numbers seems normal to you? Is there any room for improvement and how?
