Predictions Competition Poll #2: What will be the smallest Model 3 battery size?

[Trips]

Its over. 60 is the smallest. What do we win?
Nothing?
What a lame contest.
Tesla accidentally reveals Model 3 efficiency hinting at impressive range

Should someone tell Elon that it is 60kWh and not the 50kWh that he reported yesterday? +1 for me and 13 others.

Hahaha buuuuurrrrn

Small battery capacity is still not known for sure. It's likely 96S32P which would put it at 54kWh usable and 56kWh total based on the data for the 96S46P big pack which is shown below.

Elons statement isn't reflecting what Tesla reported to the EPA. Oh well, believe what you want to believe.

You don't believe Elon?

Tesla Model 3 battery packs have capacities of ~50 kWh and ~75 kWh, says Elon Musk

How about the EPA?

Tesla Model 3 has an 80.5 kWh battery and 258HP according to EPA document

 

[JoaoD]

The correct answer is: none. There is no battery size advertised in the design studio

Design Studio or Elon.

Which one is true? Is there a possibility that both are true?

 

[Troy]

Hi, everybody. "This poll is about the advertised capacity" (see rule #4 in the opening message). Tesla does not advertise any number yet. Therefore the scoring is postponed until there is more information.

But the CEO did publically state them
Tesla Model 3 battery packs have capacities of ~50 kWh and ~75 kWh, says Elon Musk

Since it will never be advertised in the Design Studio (as per the poll), that must mean we all win.

 

[Troy]

If Tesla never advertises the battery capacity, we will wait until there is a photo of the battery sticker and then we will have another poll to decide whether this number should be used for scoring or some other number or none of them. In this second poll, only votes by people who have not participated in this poll will count.

Elon just mentioned it AND the EPA posted the results of testing at the Fremont factory.

I'll tell you what....if I find out that my bank is giving away money.......they won't have to officially post it for me to go get some.

Kinda like when my wife told me she was pregnant...... I didn't need an official doctors note.

Can't tell if serious...

 

[Garlan Garner]

It doesn't matter.

You pick. Post a reply as though I'm serous and post a reply as though I'm not. Lets see which one is best.

But there's no EPA report for the short range battery, and that's what this poll is about.

If you read the question you would know that what you are saying makes no sense.
What will be the smallest Model 3 battery size as advertised in the design studio?
The questions was not what is the size of the battery, in that case it would not need to be officially posted or need an official doctors note.

But who cares about the battery size? How is that information going to help anything? I'm not being sarcastic. I'm being honest.

 

[Reciprocity]

I nailed this one. 55.

Then why are you reading this thread? The only conversation here is about a silly informal contest guessing about the battery size. Why are you chiming in at all if you don't care???

 

[azred]

Reopen the poll. Until wk057 speaks, everything we've heard is rumor unless it's from Tesla and then it's just a lie.
