Range loss on Midrange Model 3?

[ChargeyChan]

Hello, friends.

Apologies if this is answered elsewhere: I did my best to peek around first.

I got a Midrange Model 3 at the tail end of 2018. I feel like I've lost a step on the range side: now getting around 190 miles on 80% around 240 on full charge.

I have about 25,000 miles.

Just curious how this stacks up with my fabled, fellow midrange friends.

Thanks, everyone : )

Following out of curiosity, since I almost ended up with a LEMR in early 2019.

260 --> 240 is under 10% degradation and seems reasonable. Fleet average at 25k miles for a Long Range with 310 original mile rating is about 295 miles for comparison with a bigger battery car at similar mileage.

Thank you for the thoughtful reply!

I have a 2018 LR RWD purchased 7/2018. According to my records, the most range I ever charged the car to in the first couple of months was 305; don't recall if it was to 100% but definitely high 90s). The car now has 25,806 miles on it. First year I had access to free L2 charging at work (about 10,000 miles on the odometer). Since then, I've been mostly using a CHAdeMO adapter (max 45kW) and occasionally a Supercharger (typically 72kW Urban). I usually recharge when my range drops to around 150 miles (i.e., 50%) and stop at 90%.

A vast majority of the mileage has been commute and around town driving but there have been a couple of long trips, requiring multiple use of Superchargers, to L.A., Tahoe and Southern Oregon. My 90% charge range is currently hovering at 270 miles; minus a few miles at times. Extrapolated out to 100% would be 300 miles of range. That's a 3% drop from the original 310 miles in a bit over 4 years and close to 26K miles. Or, if the software change from 2019 actually upped the range to 325 miles, then that's still only an 8% drop or what @ChargeyChan sees in his MR. YMMV.
