Sorry if i sound a newbie but isnt the range based on how you recently drive? I thought if you foot it all on your last drive, the GOM range will be less.
I'm no expert and will stand corrected by the vastly more experienced however;
- Consumption range from the energy consumption varies considerably on your driving style as it's base on either instant range (what you would get in miles/km now based on your watt consumption) or likewise over the last 5,15 or 30 miles from memory on the consumption window.
- Your rated range is a simple algorithm processed by the car/computer diving the amount of 'available' kWh's by 300 watts - the average expected consumption by Tesla.
So for example when we first purchased our 2016 85D (85kWh) pack the arted range was 270 miles. To get our initial rated range of 270 I would have to divide 81kWh's by 0.3 (which suggests that 4kWh were hidden in the buffer.
In fact our initial 100% charge in 2016 gave us 264 miles suggesting we only saw 79kWh's of our 85 kWh pack.
The easiest way to keep tabs on your rated miles is to swap between % and miles/km whenever you finish your charge and before you unplug the charger. If you keep the an odd eye on this over time you will see what range in miles/km each charge gives you and note you're degradation.
So as an example before the software update in May/June a 100% charge would give me still 256 miles ( a reduction of 8 miles over 3 years), which I thought wasn't bad. So that means that I was still able to access around 77kWh's of the pack or a loss of give/take 3kWh's over 3 years. Not bad I thought.
However since the update we now achieve a 100% range of 226 miles ( a loss of 30 miles or around 12%). Tha means I only now have a useable pack of just over 67kWh's or a total loss in a software update of 10kWh's - that's huge and not normal degradation, but a battery pack that isn't performing as it was designed/described to do ..
By the way - Bjorn Nyland showed me the simple trick of whatever you prefer your car to show (I prefer %, but miles works just do this in the opposite way) save your setting showing your preferred choice of showing every - then just create another driver profile (let's call it miles not %) in my case and save the setting with whatever is your 'opposite' preferred method of showing range or %.
Then at the charger, rather than going through the settings you can just swap between the two driver profiles and it will show how many rated miles you have at any % point.
