I have an SR Model y and my range has been getting worse for the last month not sure why. I have tried driving more economically and still docent help. my range meter use to show 244 miles on full or 220 miles at 90% now it shows 209 miles at 90% and 233 miles on full. I changed to to percentage cause I thought that would help but the battery dosent seem to want to hold at 90%. After unplugging the battery drops down almost immediately to 89%. For those who have an SR Model y what your range? im getting no where near 200 miles. im getting closer to 180 miles at 90% that's what the energy app shows. Also this might seem weird I know as an SR my y won't use the 250kwh charging speeds but when I first got my Y and I went to a supercharger I was getting those speeds! and now I don't.
I found advice online (on this board) and the Tesla repair guy backs up this recommendation:
i used to plug my 3LR-AWD as soon as I got home. From Dec 2018 to recently the 80% range dropped from 396 to 360 to 332.
The car will do period battery assessments" - there is no simple "how full?" indicator for a battery. It tries to figure out from the charge it sees how much of 100% you battery has.
To properly assess your battery - charge to your standard max (80% or 90%) then unplug it and leave it unplugged as long as possible before using it.
Every so often, run the battery down to 20% or less, and let it sit like that - again unplugged - as long as you can.
When the car has done battery assessments at high and low, it has a better idea of what you battery capacity actually is.
I've found with this that my battery now charges between 375km and 394km at 80%.
of course, like gasoline mileage ratings, this is a suggestion only. I've had urban stop-and-go driving at -20C where I used 3 or 4km for each 1km travelled (avg trip speed 25km/h), and used 10% extra (11km per 10km travelled) in hot weather at 116km/h, 4km used for every 3km travelled at 20C with a good headwind at 105km/h.
So as the guys on TV say "Your mileage may vary..." At least, as I understand, cabin heat and AC are much more efficient in the Y.
