performance and non-prof ratio

[happy3powner]

any guesses? is it like for every 10 model 3 sold, 1 car is performance edition?

 

[Zoomit]

Here's the Model 3 breakdown according to TeslaFi's fleet:

Performance...............1480 .....18%
Long Range DM..........4181 ......50%
Long Range.................1254......15%
Mid Range...................1135.......14%
Standard Range Plus...174........2%
Standard Range...........87..........1%
Total.............................8311.......100%

The ratio is 2.8:1 for LRD to Perf

FWIW, it's the exact same 2.8 ratio for Model Y (355 LRD to 125 Perf)

Yea not as rare as OP had hoped.

This also represents a very small % of total model 3s sold. I would hypothesize that there is a higher ratio of enthusiasts (likely P3D owners) using Tesla Fi vs. everyday owners who likely have a non dual motor etc. but we don't see them ever on Tesla Fi.

FWIW in the Bay Area where there are a ton of M3s, I very rarely see a P3D... And I am hyper sensitive to seeing them as I have one, so always trying to spot them. Definitely less than 1:20

you assumed wrong. i was just curious how many go for perf. more the better actually. since it's awesome

completely agree. The SR+ is by far the most common here in Australia and the P3D/AWD you really dont see that often.

Right - the skew in the data is quite strong. And we know the SR+ is a huge seller - certainly not 2%. Just likely to folks who get in their car and drive it; not folks who are paying to see mostly meaningless data ....

I have no data but in Germany it looks like LR AWD seems
to be the big winner.

That's because for the person who buys a tesla an SR+ is worthless in Germany. Range not high enough to cruise fast on the Autobahn.

Even when we flog it here in the Australian rural single highways at 140kmh, with all the little towns, intersections, cars ahead you might have to slow down for the average speed only works out to be maybe 90kmh-95kmh. This is reflected in good range.

They'll be screwed on the first snow storm!

Oh wait...

Oh wait...

Everyone has snow I think

In Norway it's almost exactly 10:1, All Model 3 : Performance Model 3

Keep in mind almost nobody buys RWD due to climate, and the LR/MR-single motor was not available or very rare when the car actuallyw ent on sale

 

[Dante]

As an owner of an LR RWD and SR+, I have to say that the sentiment that you'd be screwed with RWD is not the case... cars handle really well (with snow tires). Would AWD be better? Sure, but RWD is no slouch compared to my previous FWD cars.

 

[Sunshine State]

The problem with those stats are that they are not actually stats of cars sold. They are the stats of respondents to the survey which may be dramatically skewed from the actual numbers. Clearly we don’t know if the respondents are a true cross section of the buyers. As an example there could be a huge percentage of SR+ buyers who buy the car for basic transportation and have never heard of Tesla-fi or TMC so don’t respond to online polls. I for example have bought quite a few new Teslas and have never gone to Tesla-fi.

 

[one2many]

Well I have had a few dig outs in the Boston area with RWD's and it was quite fun.
In Vermont, without 4 wheel drive you were out of luck on some days.
The sr+ could have worked here but when we have friends with us, well the charging
stops are not that much fun, on all day trips. carry on.

Model 3s registered in Norway as of today:

LR AWD: 82 %
P: 10 %
SR+: 7 %
LR RWD: 1 %

Here in Los Angeles, I would probably see 1 or 2 LR AWD/Performance Model 3s per every 10-15 Model 3s in total.

I live in Los Angeles, how can you tell? Most/some do not badges, so the only car one can clearly see is there are red brakes on performance model and possibly spoiler?

Mainly through badges or no badges. I do realize there are people that might remove or add the badge, but I figure this might not as common.

Oh wait...

millions of RWD and FWD are completely fine in Europe every year. The secret is that we use something called winter tires when it gets below 8 degrees outside.
